Bryan and Peter check in about their brief stints in the medical tent, and then it's time for the drama! Three-time Crankle 2K costume winner and runner Erin Keller joins to talk about her fundraiser "Acting like I can run for Hartford Stage," a 55-mile run along the Farmington River Trail (which goes from New Haven, Connecticut, to the Massachusetts border). Erin came up with the run to benefit Hartford Stage, where she had been employed as a prop master prior to the pandemic. Erin talks about the support planned along the route by her former coworkers, how she's fueling and training, and what it means to her to get back to a world with live theatre.
Erin’s fundraising page is Acting like I can run for Hartford Stage on Facebook.

Peter interviews Bryan about his all-day running experience. Happy Holidays from all of us at HWYRT!
Bryan gives Peter the 411 on his upcoming Soul Searching Solstice Run. Is he ready to run for nine-plus hours? WHO KNOWS?! No matter what, he will be supported on the day by Emily Saul (of the November Project) and the incredible long distance running duo of Lori Michener and Paul Chekal. He will also be empowered by a new song from Jenn Schott to help him set the tone [maybe instead of "set the tone" make it "get in the zone"?]. Then, it’s time for a quick trip into the medical tent—always the right place to be just before a full day of running. This is the final show for the year, so we want to wish all HWYRTians far and wide a safe and happy holiday season and a better new year.
