Outlandish
Fuel Your Epic
Morgan Sjogren is living the dream: She runs, backpacks, and rappels through the canyon country of the American Southwest, living out of a sunshine yellow Jeep Wrangler. She travels the West with nothing but a backpack of thrift-store clothing, her running shoes, some ultralight backpacking gear, and a dream to make the outdoors her home. Known to her followers on Instagram as the "Running Bum", Sjogren devotes her days to adventure in places like Sedona, Bears Ears, Durango, and Yosemite. She shares her lifestyle in incredible photos and essays about her thrills and spills in Outlandish: Fuel Your Epic. In Outlandish, this running bum's attitude toward adventure will inspire you to find your epic while her recipes for simple living (and burritos!) will show you the path to your own adventure life.
