This is the final episode chronicling the 2019 Race to Alaska. In the same way you use the leftover turkey carcass after Thanksgiving to make soup, we’re making R2AK stew out of our favorite leftover bits from the 2019 experience. If you’ve listened to the previous 13 episodes, you have tasted all of the dishes: the eccentric personalities, interesting boats, harrowing challenges, inspirational speeches, questionable jokes, thoughtful participants, and shared suffering that make this race irresistible for a certain type of person. This final product will leave you with a delicious layered casserole of all of them.

Wrap Up: The R2AK Daily Fix by Boldly Went

The dual nature of the Race to Alaska is that it is both a race and a grand epic journey - a hero’s saga, and a pilgrimage of sorts for some. Every hero’s journey involves the overcoming of hardship and adventure along the way. In this two part episode we highlight the struggles that teams overcame in the 2019 race on the way to Ketchikan, and the personal impact that their experiences are already having on their lives.
