Listen "Climbing 29,029 Feet: How Three Wabash Women Reached New Heights"
Episode Synopsis
What does it take to climb the equivalent height of Mount Everest—29,029 feet—in just 36 hours? In this episode of ThriveIN Wabash County, host Adam Stakeman sits down with three remarkable women from right here in Wabash County—Sarah Cole, Leah Howard, and Tammy Ford—to find out.Together, they reflect on their journey to 29029 Everesting in Sun Valley, Idaho, an endurance event that pushes participants to ascend a mountain repeatedly until they’ve climbed the height of Everest itself. From months of training to the physical and mental grit required on race day, their story is one of teamwork, determination, and discovery.In this conversation, you’ll hear about:-How three ordinary women achieved something extraordinary.-The importance of setting big goals—and leaning on each other to reach them.-How Wabash County’s parks, trails, and natural landscapes provided the perfect training ground.-What they learned about themselves—and the power of community—on the way to the summit.Video Credit: 29029 Everesting https://29029everesting.com/We hope you enjoyed this episode of ThriveIN Wabash County Podcast.
