The Path Through
Race Reviews document endurance events from inside the effort. Each review focuses on how the course behaved on the day it was run—terrain, conditions, pacing, and decision-making as they unfolded—rather than results or placement. Many venues repeat year after year; the value here is in noticing what changes, what stays consistent, and how experience alters the read of a course over time.
Race Previews are recorded before the event and cover travel, logistics, and historical course conditions.
Race Reviews document the event as it actually happened.
Race Previews (Video)
Race previews are short, pre-event videos published on YouTube.They cover expected terrain, conditions, logistics, and known constraints before race day.
These are not predictions or advice. They exist to frame expectations and are superseded by the post-race review.
