DARK MILES — Episode 1: Hike the Good Hike

Featuring Jesse “Boston Mule” Cody

Before Jesse Cody was a Triple Crowner, a Hoka athlete, and the founder of a mental health nonprofit, he was sitting alone in his Cambridge apartment staring at a tie he’d tied in a noose around his doorknob, trying to talk himself into using it.

He was 39 years old. He was, by all outward appearances, fine.

This is the story of what it took to walk 2,200 miles out of that apartment — and what came back from Maine.

In this episode:

  • The double life Jesse was living in Boston’s restaurant industry, and what he was hiding underneath it
  • The 40th birthday party that changed the weight of everything
  • Why he got on a train to Georgia without telling anyone the real reason
  • The rattlesnake on a hot mountain in the Southern Appalachians that became a turning point
  • His father meeting him in the middle of the Harper’s Ferry bridge
  • What he built when he came home: Hike the Good Hike
Dark Miles is a narrative documentary series from Hiker Trash Radio — produced stories about the internal terrain of the outdoor experience. These are the miles that don’t show up on Strava.
