The Race to Alaska will hold its 8th edition in 2024, continuing with its 750-mile course from Port Townsend, WA to Victoria, BC. And now there is a podcast series prior to the June 9 start. This episode catches up with two solo adventure artists – Dan of Team Hornblower and Bruce of Team Bowen Arrow – to understand what it is they’re running away from.
Team Hornblower
Dan Culpepper returns, having patched his Angus Rowcruiser back together after making the acquaintance of an Inside Passage log in R2AK 2023. Race Boss Jesse peppered Dan with softball interview questions in this hard-hitting interview.
Team Bowen Arrow
Bruce McTaggart brings more than a witty team name (well done, Bruce) to this year’s R2AK. Past racer Jen dug into the whats and whys of his race bid, and what it takes to human-power this thing.
