Naomi shares how her love for the outdoors shaped her running career, her transition from track and cross country to trail and hill running, and what it's like to represent Great Britain at the World Championships and take on the Marathon du Mont Blanc, finishing third on the podium in both.She opens up about training techniques, mastering downhill running, and joining the Salomon team, which marked a major step in her professional journey.

Two Poles pushing human limits: one running marathons in nearly every country on Earth, the other summiting the world's highest peaks; both pushing human endurance for personal strength. What drives a person to test the limits of body and spirit? Wojtek Machnik and Magdalena Skawińska,both Polish-born adventurers have redefined what it means to explore the world and the inner frontiers of discipline and resilience. Wojtek Machnik: Running the World, One Country at a Time Wojtek Machnik is a man in motion: he's visited 193 countries and ran 238 marathons in 181 of them. After 12 years in corporate banking and insurance, he left it all behind in 2016 to create a company combining travel and running, aligned with his own life's mission. Wojtek founded a travel agency for marathon enthusiasts, became a dive instructor, and then, in 2018, launched his life's defining challenge: the 249 Challenge, to complete a marathon in every country and territory on Earth. From December 2018 to December 2019, he ran 66 marathons in 66 countries, setting a world record for the most marathons completed in different countries within one year. When COVID-19 halted global races, Wojtek's creativity continued despite confinement due to quarantine: he famously ran a marathon in flip-flops around his bed, completing 5,626 loops of a 7.5m circuit. This viral act of defiance inspired runners worldwide. Later that year, Wotjek broke another world record for the shortest marathon loop — just 5 metres, requiring 8,440 laps and 13 hours of sheer determination. By 2020, Wojtek had become the first Pole in history and only the 16th person in the world to complete marathons in 100 countries. His goals remain as ambitious as ever: “I plan to reach 300 marathons in 200 countries by my 50th birthday, on June 20, 2027.” Beyond his personal achievements, Wojtek has also brought marathons to nations that had none, including Syria, Guyana, and Suriname, creating platforms for unity, health, and peace through sport. In 2022, in partnership with the Syrian Olympic Committee and Ministry of Tourism, he helped launch the Damascus International Marathon, the first major international sports event in Syria since the war. The following year, runners from 30 countries participated. Next stops: Ethiopia, Djibouti, Eritrea, and Somalia as part of his planned Horn of Africa Marathon Challenge (2026). “Running connects people beyond politics, borders, and beliefs,” Wojtek says. “It's the simplest way to explore, and to understand, our shared world.” Magdalena and her Mountains If Wojtek runs across the world, Magdalena Skawińska climbs it. Magdalena Skawińska's father was deeply attached to the mountains and from as early as was possible, Magdalena and her mother joined him on these expeditions in Poland, getting up at 2am to hit the mountain tracks before any trails got ‘busy' or, more notably, bad weather set in. As a young child Magdalena didn't always realise the power of this time together, bonding as a family, nor the power of extremely tough self discipline which was instilled. Since then, Magdalena who, by the way has a demanding day-time job as a lawyer in Luxembourg, has summited several of the worlds highest peak: Mont Blanc (4,808 m) Kilimanjaro (5,895 m) Elbrus (5,642 m) Aconcagua (6,962 m) Kazbek (5,047 m) Mera Peak (6,476 m) – her first Himalayan 6,000er Lenin Peak (7,134 m) – her first 7,000m summit, conquered in 2024 For Magdalena, mountaineering is more than sport — it's a spiritual and philosophical act of empowerment. She has travelled to Yemen, Syria, and Armenia, combining her expeditions with photography and cultural immersion, using her lens to capture both landscapes and the human stories within them. “Climbing and travelling to unconventional destinations is about reclaiming your own individuality and quiet courage,” she explains. “It's about defying expectations, especially as a woman, and believing deeply in your own strength, perseverance, and dreams.” Her story embodies balance between ambition and courage plus reflection and wonder.

Seguro que escuchaste eso de que "las carreras se ganan en las subidas y se pierden en las bajadas". Es decir, las bajadas serían el segmento clave donde se marcan las diferencias que luego se reflejan en el tiempo y posición en meta. Vamos a revisar dos estudios que consideran +20 000 performances en las OCC, CCC y UTMB y que comparan el pacing en subida y bajada del pelotón popular vs la élite. Comprobaremos que sí, que las bajadas son las secciones decisivas. Concluiremos con un par de recomendaciones para mejorar en bajada. Y son recomendaciones que yo mismo debería aplicar el primero, porque soy un subidor "decente", pero un pésimo bajador...

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by LMNT, we are joined by me. Because I hiked Tour du Mont Blanc. We go through all the nitty gritty details of my trip, including how I decided on going with a self-guided tour (aka staying in hotels instead of camping), the differences across the French, Italian, and Swiss portions of the trail, the best towns, the landscape highlights, the crowds, the food, how my knees asked for a divorce from my body, and everything else. But wait, there's more. Chaunce is fresh off her wedding and honeymoon, she gives us the full scoop of her month of nuptials and romance. We wrap the show maturely by covering how many poops in a day is too many poops, my business pitch for selling farts online, the triple crown of wedding traditions, I share some new gear that I got to test on TMB, and listeners share their top TMB tips- including how I did it all wrong.

Mimmi Kotka har varit en superstjärna på Mont Blanc, vunnit några av världens tuffaste bergslopp och inspirerat löpare över hela världen. Men hennes resa har inte varit spikrak. Skador och press har stopp då och då, och inte minst en cykelolycka som gjorde att hon var tvungen att omvärdera livet för att hitta glädjen igen. I det här samtalet pratar vi om att bygga upp kroppen på nytt, och om gamla och nya kosttrender. Mimmi är idrottsnutritionist och vi kommer in på härligt nördiga ämnen om kosttillskottens vara och icke vara. Och hur vettigt är det att springa på lågkolhydratskost och är ultralöpningens frälsning istället den högkolhydratshype som råder just nu? Johnny och Mimmi pratar också om hur livet som elitlöpare kan se annorlunda ut när man blivit äldre. Det här är ett avsnitt om prestation, men också om hälsa, identitet och den mänskliga sidan av ultralöpningen.

In this hilarious episode of Bone to Pick Podcast, Robert Kelly and Paul Virzi go off the rails with a wild mix of word confusion, food etiquette, and fan-submitted grievances that turn into full-blown comedy bits. From Paul's failed attempt to say “habitual” (landing on “provitual”) to a deep debate about why people cover their mouths while eating, the episode spirals into pure comic chaos. The duo riff on everything from cheap socks and broken binders to calling your mother-in-law “Mom,” while Mike chimes in with perfectly timed fan “bones.” The conversation hits moments of pure absurdity and surprising heart—especially when Bobby recalls his rough school years and the ritual of signing big deals with a $350 Montblanc pen.

After more than five years of backing and forthing, secret meetings and loud screeds, it appears the fate of TikTok in the US has finally been decided. Maybe. There are still a lot of unknowns, but we're pretty sure we know the bones of the deal — and we know which of President Trump's allies stand to benefit the most. Before we get to all that, though, David and Jake run through some big news in future gadgets, including the long-awaited-and-maybe-happening combination of Android and ChromeOS and the possibilities for a touchscreen MacBook. Then, The Verge's Liz Lopatto joins to talk TikTok. And Trump. Then, in the lightning round, the three hosts talk through Jimmy Kimmel's return, Nvidia's money problems, a surprising AmEx perk, and much more.

Why do some buyers eagerly drop thousands on a luxury item, then balk at paying a fraction of that for something useful and well-made? In this solo episode of Product: Knowledge, Laurier Mandin unpacks the Premium Buyer Paradox and explores the psychology behind premium pricing. From Dyson's visible engineering, to Bang & Olufsen's design-driven luxury, to Montblanc's identity-making pens, you'll hear how different brands justify their price tags and change buyer behavior. Laurier also shares practical tips on how product makers can earn the right to charge more—through quality, service, consistency, and customer delight. If you want to know what really makes buyers say yes to premium pricing, this episode is for you.Episode Highlights[00:00:25] The Premium Buyer Paradox — why someone will drop $100K on a Range Rover but complain your $50 service is “too expensive.”[00:01:59] Premium pricing isn't decided, it's earned. Louis Vuitton's $1,500 handbags are backed by 171 years of brand-building, not just fonts and packaging.[00:02:55] The buyer's price ceiling = desirability ÷ resources (money, time, effort, risk). Context changes everything.[00:03:57] The iPhone Affordability Index: 3 days of work in Luxembourg vs. 160 days in India for the same phone.[00:05:13] Dyson turned vacuums into engineering theater—visible performance made a $600 splurge at Costco irresistible, even to value shoppers.[00:06:34] Bang & Olufsen reframed speakers and TVs as design furniture, creating a luxury moat value shoppers won't cross.[00:07:12] Montblanc pens transformed from writing tools to prestige markers—identity, not function, is what buyers pay for.[00:08:26] How to earn premium pricing: start with quality construction, offer an amazing warranty, deliver above-and-beyond service, nail packaging, and stay flawless in every detail.[00:09:22] Delight every customer and disappoint no one. That's the only path to lasting premium status.

Au fil des siècles, les alpinistes sont devenus de plus en plus nombreux, certains ont perdu l'intérêt de la montagne et cherchent juste à accomplir une performance avant de passer à une autre activité. Une tendance que les guides de Chamonix observent et subissent. Et pendant ce temps, des hommes et des femmes continuent d'arpenter inlassablement les montagnes, malgré les risques et les accidents, et quand bien même gravir une montagne, cela ne sert à rien.

Jo joined me on the podcast back in episode #38 in November 2017.In that conversation, we discussed Jo's background and history, why she started running at 35 and the way in which she's struggled with comparison, feeling like an imposter as well as how it took years for Jo to call herself an ‘athlete' and mean it.If you haven't listened to that episode, I'd encourage you to listen to that episode first.Almost one year to the day later, Jo and I pick up where we left off and cover the events, and lessons, of the last 12 months.Since we last spoke, Jo has finished her 1st 100mi (160km) race.Then, in January 2018, Jo discovered she'd won a lottery spot to enter one of the world's most famous ultramarathons; Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (or UTMB), an incredible 100mi / 160km race that passes through France, Italy and Switzerland as you run around the Mont Blanc massif (yes, you literally run around the mountain!)Sadly, Jo's race at UTMB didn't turn out the way she wanted after she missed a cut-off around the 100km mark.So what happens when your biggest fear comes true?That's what I explore with Jo in this conversation.

This week, we welcome Paul Martino, Maria Martino, and Maria Wurtzbacher, who join host Scott Wurtzbacher to relive their fairytale on the Tour du Mont Blanc. A milestone-year idea became a self-guided loop of 100 miles around Mont Blanc across France, Italy, and Switzerland, 31,000 feet of climbing and 71 hours on trail, the kind of effort that turns friends into family.They share the shift from vacation to quest, the music of cowbells, quiet chapels that steadied shaky moments, balcony paths and a ladder section, even a helicopter's rotor wash on an exposed cliff. There is laughter at border crossings and Sound of Music singalongs, a running joke about ham and cheese, and street dancing in Courmayeur, plus generous, family-run hospitality along the way.We explore what it takes to go from point A to point B each day, training and simple routines, smart support without a guide, and the four trip markers: come home safe, achieve the goal, laugh, and cry. Intentions are tested and met: getting strong at 50, doing hard things at 60, unplugging for two and a half weeks, and learning to let go of the watch. Say yes to big adventures, choose courage over comfort, and travel together with heart.
What happens when a veteran mountain climber with hemophilia returns to mountaineering after a six-year layoff? In 2018, Chris Bombardier became the first hemophiliac to climb the Seven Summits, including Mt. Everest. In 2024, Chris leads a group of climbers with bleeding disorders on a daring attempt to summit Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the French Alps. But is being older and wiser necessarily better? In Season 4 of The Final Summit, Chris and his guests re-tell his entire life story from a new perspective. They'll talk about finding your path, defining yourself as a role model and a leader, what it means to be a success, and how to change your definition of success. This episode is brought to you by Genentech. Visit http://www.hemashort.com/ to watch the short film.
