Welcome to Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station presented by 7 Summits Snacks, the weekly podcast where endurance athletes, trail junkies, and snack enthusiasts gather to debate the most important question in ultra running: Which questionable food will get you through mile 41?
On today’s episode, we dive into the hilariously unhinged game of Eat, Toss, or Carry, featuring guest Mariah Zavala, who brings Oaxacan, Pascua Yaqui, and Puerto Rican flavor and the culinary wisdom to back it up. Hosted by Jason Bahamundi, this episode blends cultural food stories with endurance athlete chaos in a way only Run Tri Bike can deliver.
This week’s contenders?
🌮 Tlayuda — the ultimate ultra “Mexican pizza.”
🍪 Coyota — sweet, dangerous, and mile-41 questionable.
🍤 Alcapurria — the fritter that could fuel world peace.
Mariah breaks down which food she’d eat, which she’d carry, and which she’d toss into the bushes. Jason disagrees loudly (and incorrectly), because of course he does.
If you love running, culture, comedy, and fueling strategies that may or may not destroy your stomach, this is your new favorite episode.
🎧 Tune in. Laugh hard. Run happy. Learn new foods.
