One hike is not enough per podcast. That's why Broken Laces has assembled its own team of hiker correspondents. Thomas resides in the northeast and was a hiking partner of Riley's for several years in North Carolina. And Mike, whose gait rivals that of an Avatar, is a runner first, hiker second, but has hiked many trails in the Pacific Northwest.
