Do you ever get those wild ideas about running a river in a unique way, but they just stay ideas, and you kinda always wish you had followed through?  This episode is about an idea that became a reality.  In November of 2001, 3 people zipped up their drysuits, pulled on their swim fins, strapped their dry bags to river boards, and slid into the Colorado River beginning a 300 mile trip where river boards were their only water craft.  Kelley Kalafatich, Julie Munger and Rebecca Rusch floated, swam, kicked and paddled their way in and down the Colorado River, successfully and joyfully, and they have a film documenting this story.  The film has just published and they joined The River Radius to have a reunion of sorts and tell their river boarding story 25 years later.  THE FILM:  "Three Women, Three Hundred Miles: Introduction by Meryl Streep"Producer: Carr CliftonGUESTSKelley Kalafatich TEDXKelley Kalafatich IRFJulie MungerRebecca Rusch websiteInstagramFacebookYoutube SPONSORDenver Area Nissan Dealers@nissanusa EPISODE THUMBNAIL IMAGECarr Clifton ARTICLES"Grand Adventure: River Boarding the Colorado""Three Women, 300 Miles"RIVER BOARDCarlson River Board at NRSChurchhill Swimfins  THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteRunoff signup (episode newsletter)InstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree
