The U.S.'s Jim Walmsley emerged with the win at the 2025 Trail World Championships Long Trail after spending much of the race running with the French duo of Benjamin Roubiol and Louison Coiffet. In this interview, Jim talks about what it was like to run with the Frenchmen over the more technical first half of the course, what he thought of the course at race pace versus scouting pace, some of the strategies he used to play to his strengths, and how he finally opened the gap he was able to hold until the end.

Follow and share - https://www.instagram.com/ultrauncoveredpodcast/In this episode of Ultra Uncovered, we go deep on one of the most iconic—and punishing—mountain races in the world: the Pikes Peak Marathon and Ascent. We're joined by Colorado Springs local and multi-time champion Kristina Mascarenas, whose deep love for this mountain (and her decent record) makes her the perfect co-host to help us break it all down. From the relentless W's to the infamous Golden Stairs, we dissect every section of the course and share practical advice for tackling the climb, prepping for high-altitude conditions, handling the mental grind, and navigating gear and etiquette on race day. Kristina also shares her unique journey into the sport—how a challenge from her brother pulled her off the couch and onto the mountain, and how she's rebounded from not one, but two major ankle injuries to keep chasing her best performances.We also dive into the history and legends of America's Mountain, from Matt Carpenter's still-unbreakable 1993 record to the rise of Remi Bonnet, Maude Mathys, and other international stars. Kristina gives us insider tips on how to race the decent (pro tip: don't step on anything that might roll), what to expect in terms of trail conditions and weather, and why emotional readiness is just as important as physical training. Whether you're gunning for a golden hour finish or just hoping to cross that line, this one's packed with insight, lore, and plenty of laughs—including a few “Uncle Rick” gems and a call for Jim Walmsley to please come race Pikes.

In this episode of Trail Society, Corrine Malcolm, Keely Henninger, and Hillary Allen dive into one of the biggest weeks in trail running, the 2025 UTMB Finals. From brutal weather and historically high dropout rates to some of the closest top-10 finishes ever, the crew breaks down all the drama across OCC, CCC, and UTMB. They highlight standout wins from Jim Walmsley, Ruth Croft, and Francesco Puppi, celebrate trailblazing performances from athletes representing countries new to the UTMB stage, and reflect on the growing but still uneven women's participation numbers. Beyond the race results, they explore what it means for athletes to double between UTMB, Hardrock, and upcoming World Championships, and touch on the ever-buzzing brand scene in Chamonix. Beyond the race, the crew highlights systemic challenges in sport: Strava and For All Mothers+ awarded $2,000 grants to 50 athlete-mothers to cover childcare costs and training expenses, directly addressing the “motherhood penalty” that prevents so many women from competing at the highest level. Tune in for a mix of insights, stories from the ground, and the unique perspective only this crew can bring.

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?

Dans cet épisode je vous propose une rencontre avec Baptiste Morel, chercheur à l'université Savoie-Montblanc. Il a mené une étude sur l'UTMB 2023 sous l'angle du rapport entre force et vitesse par rapport à la pente.Tout est parti d'un zoom sur les performances de Kilian Jornet et Jim Walmsley sur l'édition 2022.Avec son équipe, ils ont d'abord étudié les vitesses de course sur des portions de 100m sur l'intégralité du parcours. Cela leur a permis de constater sur quel type de portions l'écart s'est finalement fait entre eux deux.En 2023, ils ont pu reproduire l'analyse sur Jim et constater l'amélioration de ses points faibles, qui l'ont mené à la victoire. Mais ce n'est pas tout : cette année-là, ils ont travaillé sur environ 400 traces pour comparer les vitesses à plat, en pente, sur des petits groupes de niveau homogène.Ce travail a révélé de nombreux résultats très intéressants, confirmant aussi par les chiffres que les descentes de plus de 7-8% sont généralement juges de paix et marquent la différence de performance entre les athlètes top élite et les coureurs de “milieu de peloton”.Ce genre d'information pourrait finalement contribuer à donner, individuellement, des pistes de compréhension et d'amélioration des qualités des athlètes.De belles perspectives pour l'avenir de l'entraînement !Je vous souhaite une bonne écoute !Liens entendus dans l'épisode :Publicationscientifique UTMB 2023 - 408 sportifsVidéoYoutube : Colloque "Le trail et l'ultra trail, tout un monde" I Conférence Baptiste Morel - UCO-IFEPSA STAPS 49Episode Jason KOOP #243 : Insights from Ultramarathon Pacing Strategies with Baptiste Morale | KoopCast #243Outil PrédictrailNewsletter Rémi Rivet --NB : Aucune rétribution n'est accordée aux podcasteurs de la part des plateformes de diffusionAucune publicité n'est diffusée sur le LTPLe seul moyen de faire en sorte que tout le travail réalisé puisse être rétribué et que le podcast puisse perdurer est d'apporter votre soutien financier via la plateforme PATREON : Pour soutenir le projet et intégrer la communauté des Patrailons c'est par là :https://www.patreon.com/lets_trail_le_podcastHébergé par Ausha.

Send us a textGet ready for an exhilarating UTMB OCC race preview that blends expert analysis with laugh-out-loud banter! James Lariello teams up with Teddy Tonelli from the Chasing Trail podcast to break down this iconic 55K mountain race that features over 11,000 feet of climbing through some of the most spectacular terrain in the Alps.The duo dives deep into what makes OCC special - from its technical course that prohibits switchback cutting to the mandatory gear requirements that add an extra layer of challenge. With forecasts showing potential rain and temperatures ranging from 48-68°F, the stage is set for an unpredictable battle on the trails.At the heart of this preview is the much-anticipated showdown between Jim Walmsley and Adam Peterman, two American ultra-running stars rarely seen competing in the same race. Has Walmsley's move to France (and his newly acquired French accent, as the hosts joke) given him the European edge? Can Peterman, coming back from injuries, reclaim his position among the elite? The hosts also highlight other Americans to watch including Michelino Sanseri and rising star Cade Michael.On the women's side, defending champion and course record holder Mao Yao returns to face stiff competition from Switzerland's Judith Weider and a strong American contingent led by Hannah Allgood and Sophia Lockley. Canadian Jasmine Lather, fresh off setting records on the Grand Teton, brings her exceptional climbing ability into the mix.Between the analysis, Teddy and James deliver hilarious commentary on everything from European shower habits to the dangers of aggressive Alpine cows, making this preview as entertaining as it is informative. Their chemistry shines through as they debate their podium picks and contemplate the future of betting in trail running.Whether you're planning to follow the live coverage or just want to understand what makes OCC one of the most competitive races of the UTMB weekend, this episode offers the perfect blend of insight, predictions, and trail running culture.

Send us a textThe legendary Speedgoat 50k isn't just another mountain race—it's a brutal test of endurance that has humbled even the sport's greatest athletes. With 11,400 feet of climbing packed into 31 miles at altitudes reaching 11,000 feet, this Karl Meltzer creation has rightfully earned its reputation as America's toughest 50k.James and Nick dive deep into what makes this race so special, tracing its rich history through the performances of ultrarunning royalty like Kilian Jornet, Anton Krupicka, and Jim Walmsley. They analyze David Sinclair's mind-blowing course record (4:57:35) set last year when he became the first runner to break the 5-hour barrier, while marveling at how the women's record has incredibly stood untouched since Anita Ortiz ran 6:02:06 back in 2008.This year's field might be the deepest in race history. The women's battle features defending champion Jasmine Lowther, Broken Arrow winner Jennifer Lichter, mountain running star Grayson Murphy stepping up in distance, and local favorite Mally Noyes who knows every inch of the course. On the men's side, Michelino Senseri stands as the clear favorite—the only runner in the field who has broken 5:20, and he's done it twice.What makes the conversation particularly fascinating is the hosts' analysis of the unique skills this course demands. Unlike many ultras, Speedgoat rewards ski mountaineering strength and climbing ability over pure running talent, explained by the exposed nature of the course running across ski slopes with minimal tree cover. Weather becomes crucial too, with cooler temperatures potentially setting the stage for record attempts.Whether you're planning your fantasy picks, preparing to race, or simply love the drama of mountain ultrarunning, this preview provides all the insights you need to understand why Speedgoat has become one of the most respected measuring sticks in trail running—a race where legends are tested and new ones are born.Follow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com!

Elle partage avec nous son enthousiasme d'être de nouveau au départ ce samedi 28 juin et d'être accompagnée sur les 60 derniers kilomètres du parcours par deux très proches amis, deux bombes des sentiers, l'un des meilleurs coureurs en sentier du Québec Olivier Gagnon, et l'un des meilleurs ultra-traileurs de la planète Mathieu Blanchard…Dans cette émission d'avant-course, nous sommes également allés à la rencontre du vainqueur surprise du dernier UTMB, Vincent Bouillard, qui a coché la Western States comme objectif numéro 1 cette saison. Vincent est l'un des meilleurs amis du quadruple vainqueur de la Western, Jim Walmsley, et il est presque chez lui puisqu'il a vécu plusieurs années en Californie. Il est donc lui aussi heureux d'être au départ de cette course qu'il rêve de gagner. Même s'il faudra pour cela rivaliser avec l'ultra-terrestre et ultra-polyvalent Kilian Jornet et les nombreux américains candidats à la victoire en l'absence du grand Jim, à l'image du vainqueur 2022 Adam Peterman, de Rod Farvard, 2e l'an dernier, ou encore du fantasque David Roche qui a prévenu qu'il venait pour gagner la course (et battre le record ?). Nous discutons également avec William Walker, le co-fondateur de Näak, qui suit avec passion la Western depuis une dizaine d'années et qui va la vivre au plus près dans quelques heures aux côtés des athlètes soutenus par la marque de nutrition sportive spécialisée dans les sports d'endurance.À noter que Näak soutient la couverture journalistique de Distances+ sur cette Western States et nous permet d'être mobilisé sur le terrain pour tenter de vous raconter au mieux l'un des quatre majeurs de l'ultra-trail international.ATTENTION - Un code promo exceptionnel a été créé pour la communauté D+ : LBAD+WSERAvec ce code, jusqu'au 31 juillet, vous avez 20 % de réduction sur TOUTES vos commandes sur le site web de Näak.---Le partenaire de La Bande à D+ Shokz offre également 10 euros de réduction sur tous les casques à conduction osseuse et/ou aérienne Shokz avec le code LBAD+ sur shokz.com (rabais qui se cumule aux éventuelles promotions en cours).Hébergé par Ausha.

This interview is part of Freetrail's coverage of the 2025 Western States 100, the most important trail running event in North America. Our shows and athlete interviews are hosted each day by Dylan Bowman who sits down to talk with some of the favorites who are racing this year.   In this interview, Dylan talks to professional runner, Rod Farvard (HOKA) for a pre-race interview in advance of this weekend. Rod lives and trains in Mammoth Lakes, California. Rod was the breakout star of the 2024 Western States 100, throwing down an incredible performance to take second place behind champion Jim Walmsley. He is the second fastest man in Western States race history. Rod comes in as the fastest returning male runner and no doubt a favorite. He is hungry to be at the front and drive the sport further. Good luck, Rod!   Make sure to tune into all of Freetrail's coverage leading into the 2025 Western States. We'll have a daily show Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of race week before we set our sites on the official broadcast where Dylan will be commentating, and we'll be providing photo and video coverage of the race for the Freetrail social channels. Make sure to follow along here and @runfreetrail on Instagram.   Make sure to play Freetrail's own fantasy trail running at https://fantasy.freetrail.com/events and pick 10-deep for Western States. Fantasy winners this week will receive a head to toe trail kit from HOKA as well as other sweet prizes from Freetrail and brand partners like Ketone and Neversecond.     Our Western States coverage is brought to you by our good friends at HOKA. We're grateful for their generous support and belief in Freetrail.   Make sure to check out the latest and greatest from HOKA, the Mafate X. The Mafate X is all about innovation and pushing past limits.

His fearless front-running and relentless pace put him on the radar of fans and competitors alike. Now, with another year of focused training, refined systems, and added motivation, Rod returns with something to prove—not just that he belongs, but that he's ready to win.In this conversation, we dive deep into the mindset and lifestyle of a modern pro trail runner. Rod pulls back the curtain on the level of commitment and precision it takes to not just go pro, but stay pro. We explore the pressures of high-stakes racing, the tactical demands of the Western States course, and how he's evolved as an athlete over the past 12 months.Partners:Norda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever made (https://nordarun.com/)Gorewear - use code SINGLETRACKPOD30 at checkout on their website to get 30% off your purchase.Naak - use code SINGLETRACK20 at checkout on their website (https://www.naak.com/) to get 20% off your purchase.Raide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains (https://raideresearch.com/)Additional Links:Follow Brett on Instagram, Strava, YoutubeFollow Finn on Instagram, Strava, YoutubeSupport the show

We gulped down some pungent juice before recording this amazing episode! The main topics were the two big pieces of news: Jim Walsmley won't be racing Western States, and Kilian Jornet is making training videos now. Jim is the GOAT and we gave him an 85% chance of winning just last week. He's the supermassive black hole at the center of the Western States galaxy. Without Jim at the start line, how does it change the race? Kilian is the GOAT too (yes, we have a GOAT herd), and he just released a training video! He abides by the "no secrets" approach, and we analyzed every frame of that video to try to find clues about whether he might be beatable. Answer: no. Bonus answer: Kilian is the best and it's fascinating that he started his own video series by talking about his heat training.And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: our magical coaching day at the US Mountain Championships, thoughts on training for mountain races, Unbreakable 2 cancellation, the wild triumph of Simon Yates, a new bicarb gel that could upend the bicarb market, the wild science of broccoli sprouts and a new juice supplement from Nomio, anti-histamines and athletic performance, why we're eating dark chocolate (it tastes good), lung training via breathing devices, the relationship between speed work and form in ultras, a hypothetical about Conner Mantz racing Leadville or Western States, an article in the New York Times on unethical mountaineering, training with a newborn, dealing with life transitions, fitting the Naked Belt, the cost of running, cheaper suphershoes, and an incredible poem on failing and flying.Everyone forgets that Icarus also flew. Also, if Icarus had broccoli sprouts and Kilian's training video, maybe he would have flown a bit longer.We love you all! HUZZAH!
