## Resource

Nicholas Triolo wrote my favorite book of 2025: ' The Way Around ' and he's back on Singletrack to chat about it. We discuss the process of writing, the inspiration for the stories, and what a great travel books are meant to do for the reader. You'll think different about that loop in the woods next time you head out on your run, I promise.
