I'm Patty Hodapp, award-winning journalist reporting from the intersection of fitness and adventure.

I have 15+ years of experience writing and editing for outlets including Outside, Men's Journal, VICE Sports, Shape, Travel Channel and Yoga Journal. I cover the outdoors, travel, health and gear to engage passionate readers through smart storytelling, on time and on budget. 

 

I write and edit for national media outlets. I'm Minnesotan by blood, expat at heart, New Mexican by zip code. I fly fish, snowboard and love a good campfire. Here's my story.
