Barry Dana | 100 Mile Wilderness Adventures, Katahdin 100 Event, Appalachian Trail Thoughts
Manage episode 329142407 series 2939378
Barry Dana is an Ultra Runner and former Chief of the Penobscot Nation currently based in Solon, ME.
I was introduced to Barry after reading an article in Downeast Magazine detailing his numerous adventure runs through the 100 Mile Wilderness, which you might recognize as the last section of the Appalachian trail before the northern terminus at Mount Katahdin.
In this conversation, Barry and I talk about his upbringing on the Penobscot Reservation, how his nation's history influenced his entry into trail and ultra running, the Katahdin 100 event, his experiences in the 100 Mile Wilderness, his thoughts on the Appalachian Trail, environmentalism in the trail running community, politics, and more.
