That's how trail running happened."Ekta Basu didn't set out to become a 200-mile ultrarunner. She simply wanted to become a healthier, happier version of herself. What started with a pair of running shoes and a marathon six months later evolved into a journey of self-discovery that ultimately led her to the finish line of the Tahoe 200.In this episode, Ekta shares how trail running became her place of freedom and how years of showing up without a structured plan eventually gave way to purposeful training, strength work, and coaching. She talks candidly about balancing running with raising a family, the importance of surrounding yourself with people who believe in you, and why finishing Tahoe 200 wasn't just about endurance. It was about becoming the person she was searching for all along.The conversation also takes listeners behind the scenes of preparing for a 200-mile race, from building drop bags and learning to use poles to dealing with blisters, brain fog, and the mental recovery that comes after crossing the finish line. It's an honest conversation about growth, community, and why sometimes the biggest victories happen long before race day.In this episodeFinding trail running through a search for identityGoing from a first marathon to Tahoe 200Why quality training matters more than junk milesBalancing motherhood, family, and ultrarunningThe value of coaches, mentors, and a strong support systemTraining for Tahoe 200 with Havelina 100 and Quicksilver 50KLessons learned from first-time 200-mile racingFoot care, recovery, and the reality of post-race brain fogWhy becoming a better person matters more than becoming a faster runnerEkta's LinksIG: @ekta_runs Strava: Ekta BasuRelevant LinksTahoe 200 by Destination TrailJavelina Jundred by Aravaipa RunningAravaipa RunningPartner Links: KILA - https://kilarun.comRun Longer In Custom InsolesUse MIDPACKER for $50 off your orderGo Brewing - https://gobrewing.com/discount/MIDPACKERNA Beers for people that enjoy brews that taste great and are better for you.Less alcohol, fewer calories, and more productive tomorrows.Use MIDPACKER for 20% off your first orderRendezvu.Co - https://www.rendezvu.co/troy-meadowsCheck out the Gear I love our purchases support me directlyVacation Races - https://www.vacationraces.comEpic Races on public lands near the most iconic National Park in the US.Use MIDPACKER at checkout for 15% the registration of any Ultra, Half, or TrailfestRun Trail Life - https://runtraillife.comFind Official MPP Merch on RTL!!Visit RunTrailLife.com to check out our line of Hats and Organic cotton T's.Freetrail - https://freetrail.comVisit Freetrail.com to sign up today.Ekta Basu, Tahoe 200, trail running, ultrarunning, 200 miler, Destination Trail, Candice Burt, Javelina 100, Quicksilver 50K, American River 50 Mile, Rio Del Lago, Brazen Racing, Inside Trail Racing, Coastal Trail Runs, Bay Area trail running, strength training, mobility, coaching, motherhood, family, support system, resilience, personal growth, endurance, recovery, brain fog, ultramarathon
Tommie Runz started running in 2018, a year after choosing sobriety, and began documenting the journey simply because it felt good to share progress and get encouragement. Seven years later, he's built an audience of over 30,000 through nothing but consistency and honesty — no viral moments, no big follower jumps, just a steady climb built entirely on trust. In this conversation, Tommie and Aaron pick up where they left off after a live panel at TrailCon, digging into what it actually looks like to build a career as an athlete-creator without compromising who you are. Tommie breaks down why he's turned down "ambassador" deals that undervalue creators, how relationships with brands often take years rather than emails to develop, and the moment he realized his content needed to sound exactly like him or it wasn't worth doing at all.

Steve Holmberg and Matt Trappe are back for a debrief on one of the biggest weeks in trail running — Broken Arrow, Western States, and everything in between at TrailCon. Steve breaks down his state-of-the-industry analysis: why trail running's rebrand from "ultra running" unlocked massive new participation, why the sport is about to fragment the way mountain biking did decades ago, and why brands chasing "max" specs are about to pivot to "right" specs built specifically for trail. Then Matt takes listeners inside a project few people got to experience firsthand — a house in Tahoe built with Skratch and other partners, designed to bring brand leaders, athletes, and creators together without competitive walls. He explains the intention behind it, what happened when 37 of 40 people in the room spoke up during an unscripted conversation, and why some of the best moments of the week happened specifically because they weren't being recorded.

Fresh off Western States week, he shares the moments that have stuck with him most, from Hans Troyer's fearless front-running to Vincent Bouillard's emotional victory, Jenn Lichter's breakout performance, and why Zack Miller remains his favorite ultrarunner of all time.The conversation then shifts from the sport to real life. Troy opens up about the decision to skip Laurel Highlands, why launching a new business changed his priorities, and how entrepreneurship and ultrarunning have more in common than most people realize. Rather than chasing races, he's embracing a season of enjoying the trails, building fitness, and preparing for a few exciting adventures later this year.He wraps things up with an update on his upcoming plans, thoughts on Hardrock, and a look at where the MidPacker Pod is headed for the rest of the season.Episode HighlightsWestern States reflections beyond the results.Why Hans Troyer's race reminded Troy of the Icarus story.Vincent Bouillard's memorable win and what it says about today's sport.Jenn Lichter's incredible Western States debut and why she's one to watch.Why Zack Miller continues to embody everything Troy loves about trail running.Is 2026 an "asterisk year" at Western States because of the cooler weather?The decision to skip Laurel Highlands and prioritize family and business.Introducing Lead Fōrj, Troy's new B2B lead generation agency.Summer running without the pressure of chasing races.Plans for the Barkley Fall Classic waitlist and an unsupported Pitchell FKT attempt.Excitement surrounding Hardrock and the return of mountain racing.Training TakeawaysConsistency often matters more than constantly chasing races.Sometimes the smartest training decision is saying no to an event.Building a business and training for ultras require many of the same skills: patience, resilience, and long-term thinking.Enjoying running for its own sake can be just as valuable as structured race preparation.Troy's Links IG: @Troyontherun @MidpackerpodRTL Ultra Coaching Lead FōrjRelevant LinksWestern States Endurance RunLaurel Highlands UltraHellbender 100Barkley Fall ClassicHardrock 100Partner Links: PlayOn Relief - https://playonrelief.comAll Natural, Fast Acting, Long Lasting, Targeted ReliefUse MIDPACKER for 20% off your first orderGo Brewing - https://gobrewing.com/discount/MIDPACKERNA Beers for people that enjoy brews that taste great and are better for you.Use MIDPACKER for 20% off your first orderRendezvu.Co - https://www.rendezvu.co/troy-meadowsCheck out the Gear I love our purchases support me directlyVacation Races - https://www.vacationraces.comEpic Races on public lands near the most iconic National Park in the US.Use MIDPACKER at checkout for 15% the registration of any Ultra, Half, or TrailfestRun Trail Life - https://runtraillife.comFind Official MPP Merch on RTL!!Freetrail - https://freetrail.comVisit Freetrail.com to sign up today.MidPacker Pod, Field Notes, Troy Meadows, Western States, Hardrock 100, Laurel Highlands, Barkley Fall Classic, Hans Troyer, Vincent Bouillard, Jenn Lichter, Zack Miller, Hellbender 100, Lead Forge, entrepreneurship, summer running, trail running, ultrarunning, Pitchell, FKT, Asheville, HOKA, Go Brewing, Play On Relief, Rendezvu
