Ryan Van Duzer and Scott Jurek tackle the Longs Peak Duathlon (biking from Boulder to the Longs Peak Trailhead + climbing Longs Peak), which was also Scott’s first time ever summiting Longs Peak (!)—but obviously not his first time having a conversation with an owl in the middle of the night (!!). (video)

On Heat’s 25th anniversary, a look back at the made-for-TV movie that served as a dry run for Michael Mann to make his masterpiece. (thanks, Syd)
