Welcome to episode 80 of Inside The Line: The Catskill Mountains Podcast! On this episode, I am joined by Catskills legend Dick Vincent, creator of the Escarpment Trail Run. The Escarpment Trail Run is an iconic 18.6 mile run with elevation changes of nearly 10,000ft that has been going on since 1977. Created by Dick, it is a rugged run that challenges even the experienced trail runners. We chat about how it was created, the challenges it offers and some of the craziest stories on the run. Sorry for the wow’s in this episode, I was blown away by some stuff we chatted about! If you want stickers, send me an email itlcatskillspodcast@gmail.com! Subscribe on any platform! Share! Donate! Do whatever you want! I'm just glad you're listening! And remember... VOLUNTEER!!!!!!
