Welcome to Episode 397 with Greg Mazu, Chief Encouragement Officer of Singletrack Trails.

Singletrack Trails was born in 2004 and has evolved into six different ventures. Over that time, Greg has shifted Singletrack from a boutique trail construction company to a multi-faceted outdoor recreation development firm. And Greg has shifted his focus with the company as an owner-operator to their Chief Encouragement Officer.
