In this episode, Emkay and Dani break down the Mountain Classic World Championships, where Kenya once again comes in as the team to beat. On the men's side, the trio of Philemon Kiriago, Michael Selelo, and Paul Machoka return as heavy favorites, but they'll face strong challenges from David Norris (USA), Abel Chebet (UGA), and the American duo of Cam Smith and Taylor Stack. The women's race is equally compelling, with Kenya's Joyce Muthoni and Valentine Jepkoech Rutto leading the charge. They'll be pushed by top contenders Scout Adkin (GBR), Nina Engelhard (GER), Oria Liaci (SUI), Anna Gibson (USA), Martyna Młynarczyk (POL), and Lauren Gregory (USA).

In this episode, Emkay and Dani dive into the Short Trail World Championships, where Spain enters as the undeniable team to beat on both the men's and women's sides. The men's field is headlined by Antonio Martínez, Andreu Blanes, and Manuel Merillas, giving Spain incredible depth, but they'll face stiff competition from David Sinclair (USA), Davide Magnini (ITA), and Kristian Jones (GBR). On the women's side, Switzerland's Judith Wyder stands out as the athlete to beat, while Spain's Sara Alonso and Malen Osa add to the nation's powerhouse line-up. Clementine Geoffray (FRA) and orienteering legend Tove Alexandersson (SWE) round out a stacked women's race that promises fireworks from start to finish. With Spain's depth across both squads, the real question is whether anyone can rise up to challenge their dominance.Follow us:Instagram: @emkaysulli | @dan_yell_aPodcast: @the_subhub_podEpisode Sponsors:Neversecond: Use code SUBHUB25 for 25% off your purchase-- never2.comWild Strides Paper Co - Use code SUBHUB15 for 15% off our collab sicker packBeekeepers Natural: Use code SUBHUB20 for 20% off your purchase-- www.beekeepersnaturals.comPit Viper:Click this link for 20% off at checkout

This season, Rachel finished 11th in the overall ranking after a series of strong performances: 16th at Four Sisters in China, 6th at Broken Arrow 23K, and 10th and 11th at Mammoth Trail Fest. She wrapped up the season with a solid 10th place at the final.

Following the Golden Trail World Series this year, you might have seen Anna Gibson making waves. Competing in the series, Anna took 6th at Sierre-Zinal, 7th at Headlands 27K, and 3rd at Mammoth Trail Fest, finishing 8th in the Prologue and 13th in the Final to secure an impressive 5th overall ranking, the highest finish by an American this year. But Anna's season wasn't just about the trails—her versatility stands out as she was also one of the few athletes to EVER compete at both the Olympic Trials and the GTWS in the same year. In our latest episode, Anna dives into the highs and challenges of balancing elite performances across two worlds, her partnership with Brooks, what she learned from this year's dual-season, what's next on her journey, and more. Anna has already cemented herself as not only a Rising Global Talent in our sport, but one of the American Women to keep an eye on in the coming years.
