Podcast appearances and mentions of Jim Walmsley

I'm so excited to share this conversation with Ryan Montgomery, who placed third at Western States this year in a huge breakthrough race. The top three men all broke Jim Walmsley's previous course record, with Ryan running 13:53. This was his fourth consecutive year running Western States after placing seventh twice, and to say this was a breakthrough is a bit of an understatement. Being in the top 10 at Western States is a huge deal, but being on the podium is an even bigger deal. We talk about Ryan's history with running, how he fell in love with long distances, and the journey it took to get to this level. A lot of people might not know that his first 100-mile race took him 28 hours. The process he's walked through to achieve these really high-level goals is fascinating. He is truly dedicated to the craft. We also get into the backstory of Ryan's life and so much more. He set the FKT on the Wonderland Trail in 2020, placed second at the Javelina 100 in 2021, and recently earned his MBA from Dartmouth. I don't always get off an interview feeling like I really know a person, and I really felt like I knew Ryan at the end of this conversation. I loved this one so much. Ryan is also the founder of Out Trails and shares more about that in this conversation. We'll link all of the resources we talk about in the show notes.

Pendant longtemps, David Michel était convaincu d'une chose : la Western States n'était pas faite pour lui.Dans cet épisode de Course Épique, je reçois le chef de service des sports extrêmes au sein de L'Équipe pour revenir sur une aventure qui dépasse largement le cadre d'une simple course.La Western States 100 n'était pas un objectif de longue date. C'était un rêve qui semblait inaccessible. Jusqu'au jour où il a décidé de tenter l'impossible.David revient sur son parcours singulier : son premier marathon à New York à 19 ans, sa carrière de journaliste construite pas à pas, son arrivée dans l'univers du trail et ce sentiment tenace de ne jamais vraiment être à sa place. Jusqu'à ce que l'idée de prendre le départ de la Western s'impose. Une idée folle pour celui qui se considérait encore comme un simple marathonien.Au fil de notre échange, il raconte neuf mois d'une préparation minutieuse, son accompagnement par Maryline Nakache, les doutes, les sacrifices, l'attente, mais aussi cette fascination quotidienne pour la course.Il partage les coulisses d'une préparation de course hors norme, son arrivée en Californie, le vertige ressenti en se retrouvant aux côtés de Kilian Jornet, Jim Walmsley ou Vincent Bouillard sur la ligne de départ, et ce combat intérieur qui commence lorsque le corps cesse de répondre.Entre course à pied, ultra-trail, endurance, quête de légitimité et amour du running, cet épisode raconte surtout l'histoire d'un homme qui apprend à croire en lui. Une histoire de syndrome de l'imposteur, de persévérance et de passion, où l'essentiel n'est finalement pas le chrono, mais le chemin parcouru pour oser prendre le départ.Un échange sincère et inspirant, qui donne follement envie de courir... et d'oser poursuivre les rêves que l'on croyait réservés aux autres.***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

Partiamo dalla Lavaredo Ultra Trail per celebrare la vittoria incredibile di Sunmaya Budha sulla 120km, atleta fuggita da un matrimonio combinato in Nepal e capace di siglare un nuovo record femminile. Corre per Kailas, brand in ascesa totale che ha brillato anche con il secondo posto di Cristian Minoggio alla 90km del Mont Blanc.Voliamo poi negli USA per una Western States memorabile: Vincent Bouillard e Francesco Puppi (entrambi con ai piedi le nuove Hoka Tecton X 4) hanno infranto il record di Jim Walmsley. Analizziamo anche la leggendaria Hardrock 100, dominata da Ludovic Pommeret a 51 anni e dall'inarrestabile Courtney Dauwalter, arrivata terza assoluta. E per chi corre all'UTMB, un reminder fondamentale sull'utilizzo obbligatorio della luce frontale rossa. Spazio alle polemiche finali: le regole anacronistiche della Federazione Skyrunning sulle maglie dei team e le norme della World Athletics sulle scarpe che rischiano di far squalificare inutilmente gli amatori.Chiusura con uno spoiler sulle gare di fine ottobre: io sarò al via della 140km, Luca sulla 80km... e stiamo pensando di organizzare una cena con la community!Un ringraziamento speciale a Wikiloc, sponsor di questa puntata.Trovate il link qui sotto per scaricare l'app: http://loc.wiki/openApp?wo=sterratoe un codice promozionale per ottenere due mesi gratuiti di Wikiloc Premium:https://it.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/checkoutPremium.do?promocode=STRT-PODC-2601*Codice valido nell'Eurozona fino al 30/09/2026 per i membri non abbonati a Wikiloc PremiumArgomenti trattati:00:01 Intro e ringraziamento a Wikiloc02:44 Il 35° posto assoluto di Luca alla GTC 5506:02 La mia GTC 100: crisi sul Pavillon e 108km reali12:44 Il supporto della community e il ritiro sfiorato18:29 Organizzazione GTC: il disastro delle code per i pettorali23:29 Mondo trail vs mondo bici da strada

Au sommaire de ce 18e épisode de la saison 5 (#98) du talk-show du trail et de l'ultra-trail, animé par Nicolas Fréret du média d'information Distances+ : une plongée sur le mythique GR20 en Corse, un précieux conseil nutrition de Manon Bohard et un document D+ sur la folle histoire de la Western States 2026.

Recientemente se batieron los récords masculino y femenino en Western STATES. ¿Cómo fue posible? El recordman y la recordwoman tienen 32 y 29 años de edad, respectivamente. Los anteriores records eran de Jim WALMSLEY (36) y Courtney DAUWALTER (41). ¿Son los 30-bajos la edad sweetspot y los 30-altos el inicio del fin? De esto reflexiono en voz alta hoy.

Vincent Bouillard en modo extraterrestre y dominador, ganando con récord y rompiendo por mucho la histórica barrera de las catorce horas. Jennifer Lichter haciendo lo propio en la prueba femenina en su debur en una cien millas. La bronce olímpica Molly Seidel bajando al barro y consiguiendo cruzar la meta de Auburn más allá de las 24 horas. El adiós anticipado de Kilian Jornet y Jim Walmsley. Gerard Morales dando una lección de gestión de un ultratrail y consiguiendo un SUB20 horas de prestigio. Siete mujeres entre los veinte primeros clasificados de la general. Una Western States 100 histórica, de la que fuimos testigos en primera persona, que resumimos en Sweet Home Alabama.

Que los veteranos pueden reconstruirla por detrás. Que Gerard Morales puede firmar la carrera de su vida. Que Abby Hall opta a un doblete histórico. Que Molly Seidel abre la puerta de lo desconocido.

We are joined by trail star Seth Ruhling to preview the Western States 100, debating Jim Walmsley's sponsor entry, Killian Jornet on a torn meniscus, and the gastrointestinal perils of high-carb fueling. The crew also untangles the confusing science behind Zone 2 versus threshold training and recaps recent World Cup matches.This episode was sponsored by Stryd!https://www.stryd.live/coffeeclubhttps://www.instagram.com/strydrunning/?hl=enThe Coffee Club Podcast is hosted by Oliver Hoare, George Beamish, and Morgan McDonald: 3 professional runners and olympians who train and live in Boulder, Colorado that compete for the On Athletics Club and On.Thumbnail Photography by Asa Fletcher: https://www.instagram.com/asa.fletch/?hl=enSpecial Guest:Seth Ruhling https://www.instagram.com/sethruhling/Follow us here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coffeeclubpod/George Beamish: https://www.instagram.com/georgebeamish/Morgan McDonald: https://www.instagram.com/morganmcdonald__/Olli Hoare: https://www.instagram.com/ollihoare/Tom Wang: https://www.instagram.com/womtang/Coffee Club Merch: https://coffeeclubpod.comMorgan's discord: https://discord.gg/uaCSeHDpgsMorgan's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MorganMcDonaldisaloserIntro Artwork by The Orange Runner: https://www.instagram.com/theorangerunner/Intro Music by Nick Harris: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Zab8WxvAPsDlhlBTcbuPi

La Western States 100 approche à grands pas et pour une cinquième année consécutive, Nicolas Danne débarque au micro pour décortiquer les histoires, les tendances et les athlètes à surveiller. Question de rendre justice à l'incroyable profondeur des pelotons élites de 2026, on a choisi de séparer notre traditionnelle Jasette de geeks en deux parties. Après avoir analysé la course féminine mercredi, on tourne maintenant notre attention vers les hommes. Jim Walmsley, Kilian Jornet, Adam Peterman, Hayden Hawks, Jeff Mogavero, Francesco Puppi, Thomas Cardin, Vincent Bouillard, Hans Troyer, Canyon Woodward, Will Murray et Anthony Costales : le peloton masculin regorge de talent, d'expérience et de points d'interrogation. Entre les anciens champions de la Western States, les "young guns" et les vieux routiers, les scénarios sont pratiquement infinis. Dans l'épisode, Nico et moi analysons les forces en présence, les rivalités potentielles, les enjeux de la journée et les histoires humaines qui rendent cette édition particulièrement intéressante. On parle évidemment du retour du quadruple champion Jim Walmsley (2018, 2019, 2021, 2024) sur son terrain de jeu favori, de l'état de la blessure au TFL de Kilian Jornet, mais aussi des nombreux prétendants qui veulent brasser les cartes. Et comme le veut la tradition, on se prête au jeu des prédictions. Bref, une Jasette de geeks classique : passionnée, assumée et remplie de spéculations à quelques jours du départ du 100 miles le plus mythique au monde. Bonne écoute!Mise à jour : Suite à l'enregistrement de l'épisode, nous avons appris que l'athlète américain David Sinclair ne prendrait pas le départ.*Magasinez dès maintenant chez Altitude Sports et profitez d'un rabais jusqu'à 20% sur votre première commande avec le code promo PASSORTIDUBOIS2026.

Moins de 15 jours. C'est le temps qu'il lui reste avant l'un des ultras les plus mythiques de la planète, et Thomas Cardin nous reçoit encore en tenue de course, transpirant de sa dernière sortie longue achevée quelques minutes avant.La Western States 100 l'attend en Californie le 27 juin — 161 km, 5 500 m de dénivelé positif, une chaleur qui peut briser les plus aguerris. Mais avant de parler de la course, il y a une histoire plus grande à raconter : celle d'un homme qui a tout remis à plat.Quatre victoires sur le Ventoux, trois SaintéLyon, Champion de France, d'Europe — Thomas Cardin a tout gagné. Et c'est peut-être là que les choses ont commencé à se fissurer. Une lassitude à l'entraînement, des victoires qui déclenchent moins d'émotions, une blessure quelques semaines avant les Championnats du monde qui le prive de son objectif de l'année.La tête qui dit stop, ou plutôt : assez de ça, essaie autre chose. Ce basculement vers l'ultra-trail, il en raconte les coulisses sans fard — la peur de perdre son niveau, l'ego mis en jeu, et la confiance progressive grâce à son coach Philippe Propage et à sa femme Anne-Claire, qui l'accompagnent dans une décision bien plus large : arrêter l'enseignement pour devenir athlète professionnel à temps plein.Dans cet épisode, Thomas parle de la redécouverte du plaisir de courir — ces sorties de cinq à six heures où l'on arrive fatigué mais pas détruit. Il évoque sa victoire sur son premier ultra à Chianti, la gestion de la chaleur comme défi existentiel de la Western, les séances en doudoune par 20 degrés, le capteur de température corporelle, et les équipes de recherche mobilisées pour qu'il arrive au départ dans les meilleures conditions.Il parle aussi de cet imaginaire américain construit depuis l'adolescence — le Grand Canyon, Anton Krupicka torse nu, Jim Walmsley et son crop-top troué.La Western n'est pas seulement une course. Pour Thomas, c'est le début d'un nouveau chemin, vécu avec son père, son équipementier partenaire, et une sincérité désarmante : "Après, je voudrais rentrer chez moi, retrouver ma famille."Derrière le coureur d'élite, il y a un homme qui a choisi de ne rien sacrifier. Et il est sacrément attachant.Photo : Lilian Menetrier***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

We violated the warranty on ankle tape before this great episode! A main topic involved taking a step back to understand the historic context of Vinny Mauri's 2:05 debut marathon. We think it's a performance that signals a fundamental shift in the future of the sport for everyone, and we discuss why.We also talked about the exciting news that Jim Walmsley is heading to Western States with a sponsor slot. The GOAT is back! David had some terrible hot takes, and he's now panicking that he didn't give enough disclaimers that he doesn't actually believe any of them.And this one had lots of fun topics! Other topics: unique uses of athletic tape, Abby Steiner sues Puma over their shoes, misconceptions about training volume, physiological testing of private parts, uninformed thoughts on the Kentucky Derby, a hydration review arguing that many athletes underhydrate outside of training, a study on ketones during hard efforts, using caffeine to increase heart rate, combining Nomio and bicarb, the wild world of zone compression, AI thoughts, and lots more.To us, you are all in the top 1%. That will make sense after you listen. Unfortunately.We love you all!

Days before lining up at Black Canyon 100K, Francesco Puppi sits down with Moisés Jiménez and Max Keith for a deep dive into training philosophy, double-threshold blocks, and what he learned from living and training alongside Jim Walmsley in Arizona.This conversation centers on performance — not hype.Francesco breaks down what he saw firsthand inside Jim's preparation: Norwegian-style double threshold days, lactate testing between reps, treadmill precision at 7,000 feet, and the detailed charts mapping grade-adjusted pace to real-world effort. They unpack how controlled treadmill sessions can sharpen fitness — and where that approach may fall short when it comes to downhill durability and technical trail adaptation.They explore:What double-threshold training actually looks like (5x6min uphill + 10x3min controlled efforts)Why Jim measures lactate mid-workout — and what he's looking forHow to build aerobic power without going “all out”The pros and limitations of treadmill-based performance blocksTranslating controlled lab-style fitness into chaotic desert terrainFrancesco also shares how his own training differs — why he prioritizes eccentric load, downhill strength, and trail specificity — and how he's integrating lessons from Arizona without abandoning his system.The conversation shifts into race execution: sodium strategies, heat adaptation ahead of Western States, passive vs. active heat training, and the discomfort of Black Canyon's rolling, relentless terrain. They discuss how early-season American racing forces athletes to sharpen fitness in January and February — and whether that's sustainable long term.If you're interested in the how behind elite performance — the data, the structure, the experimentation, and the honest doubts — this episode delivers a rare look inside high-level ultra preparation.What you'll learnThe structure of Jim Walmsley's double-threshold blockHow lactate testing shapes workout intensityWhy treadmill precision can accelerate aerobic gainsThe missing pieces when training indoors for trail ultrasHeat and sodium strategies for Western States-style racingHow to evolve your system without overhauling it

Today we welcome the #1 Trail Runners of the Year, Jim Walmsley and Katie Schide, both Americans who currently reside in France. This is the second time each has won our prestigious award and they've both been featured all four years of TROY's existence.     Jim's season was anything but straight forward. He started with a big win at Chianti by UTMB in the spring before an injury prevented him from defending his win at the Western States 100. Luckily, he bounced back in a big way, winning OCC in August and then the Long Trail World Championship in September - the second individual gold medal of his career.         On the other hand, Katie is crowned TROY for the second year in a row. She started with a win at Madeira Island Ultra Trail before winning and setting a new course record at the Hardrock 100 in July. Only three weeks later she was second at Sierre-Zinal before winning the Long Trail World Championship in September.      This episode is part of Freetrail's annual Trail Runner of the Year Rollout -- an opportunity to reflect on the 2025 season and celebrate the athletes who performed the best according to the global trail running community. We're proud to partner with All Conditions Gear to bring the awards to life.    REGISTER FOR THE BIG ALTA     REGISTER FOR GORGE WATERFALLS   Sponsors: Grab a trail running pack from Osprey Use code FREETRAIL25 for 25% off your first order of NEVERSECOND nutrition at never2.com Go to ketone.com/freetrail30 for 30% off a subscription of Ketone IQ Freetrail Links: Website | Freetrail Pro | Patreon | Instagram | YouTube | Freetrail Experts   Dylan Links: Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn | Strava

For the final episode of 2025, Zoë and Brendan share their own year-end reflections, summits, snacks, and slogs,  including Zoë's experience hitchhiking to the start line of a 78-mile race in Italy, arriving 90 seconds before the gun went off to stand between Kilian Jornet and Jim Walmsley in a downpour that would last 15 hours. Then they pull their favorite moments from this year's interviews. You'll hear coach Mario Fraoli explain why the marathon is where racing ends and insanity begins. Steve Magness on why running might be the healthiest cult you can join. Alex Hutchinson on the effort paradox, why we value things because they're hard, not in spite of it. Sabrina Little on running as a laboratory for virtue. And Dan Lieberman, who co-authored the original "Born to Run" research, telling Zoë and Brendan to their faces that ultra running is absolutely, completely, and totally bizarre. Thanks for spending 2025 with The Trailhead. See you on the trails in 2026.

Jim Walmsley is one of the greatest trail runners of all time. Two weeks ago, he won the Long Trail World Championship, a brutally technical 80k race in Canfranc, Spain. This was Jim's second World Title following up a Short Trail victory in 2019. In this conversation, we reflect on the performance and discuss Jim's plans for the future.   Chapters: 1:00 Jim Walsmley's Clutch Gene 10:00 The Success of Doubling Back in Racing 13:04 Technical Challenges of the Course 16:04 Race Dynamics and Early Strategies 19:07 Mid-Race Mindset and Team Dynamics 21:54 The Turning Point at Candanchu 24:52 Reflections on Achievements and Growth 34:38 Shoe Selection Insights 38:27 Performance and ITRA Scores 42:10 Trail Running in the Olympics 54:56 Competing Together: Jess & Jim both racing at worlds 57:25 Looking Ahead: Future Plans   REGISTER FOR GORGE WATERFALLS   Sponsors: Use code freetrail10 for 10% off Speedland Footwear Grab a trail running pack from Osprey Use code FREETRAIL25 for 25% off your first order of NEVERSECOND nutrition at never2.com Go to ketone.com/freetrail30 for 30% off a subscription of Ketone IQ Freetrail Links: Website | Freetrail Pro | Patreon | Instagram | YouTube | Freetrail Experts   Dylan Links: Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn | Strava

We loaded up on sympathy baguettes for UTMB racers before recording this great episode! The main topic was digesting everything from UTMB week, including Jim Walmsley reinforcing his GOAT status, Courtney Dauwalter reinforcing hers, the coolest coaching story ever from Scott Johnston (who coached Ruth Croft and Tom Evans to UTMB wins), training takeaways, and so much more! The science breakdown looked at a new study that is being used to argue that low carb doesn't hurt high-intensity performance. We dive into the study design and statistics to show why that's the wrong conclusion. And this one had so many great topics! Other topics: going dark on the trails, Megan's new fast shoe, our trail supershoe rundown, the new Champion Plan for 100k to 100 miles, the minimum dose of passive heat training, using weight vests, what makes a good coach, a relationship question, relying on liquid carbs, engaging the glutes, drinking from streams, and climbing form.What's for dinner? We'll take the European Aid Station--baguettes, sausage, cheese, sparkling water, techno music, and being unable to drop out due to the language barrier.We love you all!
