A casual introduction for the non-enthusiast, a pretty fun read! Oh and @horusthelocal.bsky.social was interviewed for the piece! What a homie! Let’s ride some trains together again soon! 🫡🚆🏃

Why are so many transit fans attempting the Bay Area Rapid Transit speedrun? I tried it and it nearly broke me.

So…I was invited to speak on the official BART Podcast! Thank you so much @bart.gov and @aliciatrost.bsky.social for hosting me at the BART HQ, and allowing me, Enzo, and Adam to speak about the idea, planning, and challenges of Speedrunning, along with sharing our love for transit!
