About Paddle Sports Lifestyle

In 2023, Kim lined up for the MR340 — a 340-mile non-stop race on the Missouri River — as a complete newbie paddler with more determination than experience. With a massive learning curve and race day looming, she launched the Paddle Sports Lifestyle Podcast to document the journey in real time.

Season One drops listeners straight into the deep end as Kim gets in over her head (sometimes literally), makes rookie mistakes, asks a million questions, and gradually builds the skills and confidence needed to face the world’s longest nonstop river race.

Learn alongside Kim and her friends as they take a fast-track course in everything paddling: boats, paddles, gear, gadgets, safety, river strategy, training, nutrition, navigation, and the mental game required to keep going when quitting would be easier.

 

Whether you’re brand new to paddling, curious about endurance racing, or simply love a good adventure story, follow along! 

Later seasons include interviews with MR340 paddlers and crews.
