Hi, we're Susan & Paul Lieto. Join other Explorer Club members and help us produce newsletters, adventure guides, wellness and aging happily tips, essays, & more.

Memberships support our collection of freely accessible work and our efforts in creating a community of like-minded midlife runners, cyclists, and explorers who continue to seek adventure.

Paying members will also get access to members-only content, forum access (coming soon), and other goodies to be developed as we grow this community.

The Explorers Club

Everthirst is an independent publication launched initially as Dirty Good Co. in the Fall of 2017 by Paul Lieto & Susan Barrows.

We started this venture to chronicle our personal journey of mental wellness and adventure. It continues as a broadened resource to educate and encourage aging athletes, and those who’ve struggled with mental health, to stay curious, downshift, and rediscover vitality.

We empower people to move outside, connect with nature, and in doing so, develop grit, build vitality, improve mental wellness, and craft an adventure driven life.
