Dave Goldstein, who was 18th overall with a time of 17:50:00, Dave will Race Directing the Just Survive 125 next year… so we get to hear all about that! And, Brian Leon, who placed 2nd overall with a time of 13:34:00.And with this year, it really was a special year. just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to Jeff Stephens and Andrea for their years of race directing the Lake to Ocean 100K (L2O). Jeff has always been one of those RD's I've looked up too.  Their hard work and dedication created one of the most rugged, legendary running events Florida has ever seen, all while preserving the spirit of a true old-school ultramarathon.Although I've only made it as far as Beeline and have spent time hanging out at the event, L2O remains one of my favorite races of all time. So, thank you, Jeff and Andrea, for everything you've done for the Florida ultra community and for building such a special race.With that also comes some exciting news: Leo Acosta will be taking over as Race Director. For those unfamiliar with Leo, he is the Race Director for Death at Dupuis and has done a fantastic job with that event.It's exciting to see what the future holds for the Lake to Ocean 100K under Leo's leadership. More importantly, it's great to know that this race will continue carrying on the tradition of being an old-school ultra classic for years to come.

Take a run with The Human Potential Running Series podcast. In Episode 81, HPRS Race Director John Lacroix dives into a fascinating, cautionary tale from the frontline of local trail racing: The Rise of the AI Race Director. John breaks down a recent interaction with a new event organizer whose entire race presence, from a highly priced entry structure down to every single line of marketing copy, was entirely generated by Artificial Intelligence. What happens when automated machine learning clashes with the complex, boots-on-the-ground reality of public land permitting, route design, and community safety? John shares the email correspondence, the logistical red flags he uncovered (including courses mapped over illegal social trails slated for restoration), and the essential human truth that no algorithm can ever replace: ultra running requires authentic community and real-world risk management. To close, John connects this modern dilemma to a special speech and original poem inspired by Dr. Seuss's The Lorax, reminding us all of the heavy responsibility of stewardship and why the soul of the sport depends on people who "care a whole awful lot."

Eamon talks to Paul about what we can look forward to and about organizing such a significant event Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

   What does it really take to build a true street Volkswagen that can survive the cruise… and then go heads-up on the drag strip? On this episode of Let's Talk Dubs, we sit down with Dino Mendoza — one of the driving forces behind the VW Real Street racing scene — to break down one of the most exciting and authentic forms of air-cooled Volkswagen drag racing happening today. Dino gives us an inside look at how Real Street VW racing was built from the ground up, what separates it from traditional bracket racing, and why the rules—pump gas, all motor, carbureted, and mandatory street cruise—are what make this class so competitive and respected. We dive deep into: The origins and evolution of VW Real Street racing What it takes to build a fast, reliable air-cooled VW drag car Why "real street" means more than just a name Engine combinations, tuning strategies, and common mistakes The difference between heads-up drag racing vs bracket racing Stories from the track and the people pushing the limits of street-driven Volkswagens If you're into classic Volkswagen performance, VW drag racing, air-cooled engine builds, or street-driven race cars, this episode is packed with real-world knowledge straight from someone shaping the scene. Whether you're building your own VW or just love the culture, this is one you don't want to miss.

Nos sentamos con Aleix, Project Manager de las Epic Series y Race Director de la Andorra Epic, y también una de las caras revelación de esta Cape Epic: fue el moderador del podcast Sin Filtros, en el que junto a Ibon Zugasti y Pau Zamora analizaban cada etapa en tiempo real con un éxito arrollador.Con Aleix hablamos como a él le gusta: sin cortapisas. Entramos de lleno en los temas más polémicos de la Cape Epic. ¿Es demasiado cara para lo que ofrece? ¿Por qué los problemas gastrointestinales llevan años castigando a los corredores en Sudáfrica? Y, sobre todo, el tema más caliente de esta edición: la modificación del recorrido para las participantes élite femeninas. Nos lo ha contado todo, sin esquivar ninguna pregunta.También analizamos lo que pasó este fin de semana en el Tour de Flandes. Las exhibiciones de Pogacar empiezan a rozar lo nunca visto en este deporte, y la pregunta ya no es si va a ganar, sino hasta dónde puede llegar. No sabemos dónde está el techo del esloveno, y sinceramente, ni siquiera tenemos claro si lo que estamos viviendo es bueno para el ciclismo. Lo debatimos, y adelantamos lo que esperamos de la París-Roubaix.Y cerramos con uno de los temas que más nos preguntáis: ¿cómo viajamos en avión con la bici? Caja de cartón, bolsa textil o maletín rígido. Ventajas e inconvenientes de cada sistema.

Kurze Vorbemerkung: Dominik Hartmann ist unser Race Director, Mitgründer und der Grund, warum wir beim Schreiben dieser Zeilen nicht einmal versuchen, neutral zu klingen. Er war Freeskier, bevor er Race Director war. Davor mit Hilux und Skiern durch Zentralasien. Dazwischen hat er Salsa tanzen gelernt. Und irgendwann hat er den Chiemgau Trail Run gestartet, zu einer Zeit, als Kilian noch in Spandex unterwegs war und Trailrunning hier eher Fragezeichen als Szene. Unsere erste Reaktion damals: Trailrunning. Wie bitte? Tage vor dem ersten CTR stand er noch mit der Lawinenschaufel im Hang. Schnee und Eis raus, per Hand, mit einer Handvoll Helfer:innen. Sally war dabei. An der Stelle: Danke, Sally. In dieser Episode geht es genau um diesen Weg. Von Backside 360s und Zentralasien hin zu Verantwortung, Events und SALTY. Vom Selbermachen zum Loslassen. Vom Draußensein zum Überblick. Wir sprechen über Ideen, die erstmal nach Hirnpfürzen klingen. Und manchmal genau deshalb funktionieren. Über das, was ein Event heute ausmacht. Und warum sich vieles verändert hat. Aber nicht alles. Die Beschreibung ist nicht unvoreingenommen. Das Gespräch war es auch nicht. Macht es vielleicht besser.

On the chat is Jeff Iosa, Mr. Pacer Travel himself, as he takes us through his incredible journey at the Big Scrub 150. To add to the fun of the adventure, Jeff chose to take on this challenge on his birthday. From the highs to the inevitable lows, Jeff shares what it took to push through 150 miles of remote Central Florida and what kept him moving forward every step of the way. Joining the conversation is John Baughman, who played acrucial role behind the scenes as part of Jeff's crew. John offers insight into the strategy, support, and real-time problem-solving that go into helping Jeff succeed in such a challenging event. Joe Miller, the Race Director for the Big Scrub 150, also joins us to give his perspective on how it all went down.Together, they dive into the experience from every angle – the runner, the crew, and the race director, giving a full behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to take on the Big Scrub 150. Unlike a traditional race where everyone lines up at the same start line on the same day, the Big Scrub 150 is something completely different. Runners have the entire calendar year to complete the 150-mile route through the rugged and sandy terrain of the Big Scrub area of Central Florida. It's an “on your own” adventure that requires planning, grit, and a strong support system. But what truly makes this event special is the community behind it. Before you can even attempt the Big Scrub 150 yourself, you have to give back — by crewing, pacing, or helping another runner during their attempt. That requirement creates a tight-knit network of runners supporting runners, and it's become one of the defining characteristics of the event. Huge congratulations again to Jeff Iosa for finishing the Big Scrub 150 — a true test of endurance and determination. Also make sure to check out his Youtube page, Pacer Travel!

On this episode of the Florida Trail Runners Podcast, wecatch up with Jon Reid after completing one of Florida's most unique endurance challenges — the Big Scrub 150. And joining the conversation is Joe Miller, Race Director of Combat Racing and the creator behind the Big Scrub 150. In this episode, Jon walks us through his journey frompreparation to execution — the long miles, the mental battles, the role of family and crew, and what it felt like to finally get it done. Joe dives into how the Big Scrub 150 came to be, what makes the course such a challenge, and why the community aspect is so important to the spirit of the event.  Unlike a traditional race where everyone lines up at the same start line on the same day, the Big Scrub 150 is omething completely different.

Send us a textThe mountain weekend Flagstaff has been waiting for just showed up with big legs and bigger lungs. We sit down with race director Aaron Barber to unpack how Flagstaff Sky Peaks evolved from a “nice race in the pines” into a full three-day festival at Arizona Snowbowl, built around steep ski runs, high-altitude ridgelines, and a finish-line scene right by the lodge. From a Friday uphill lung-burner to Saturday's slate with a 2,500-foot opening climb, fixed-time vert loops, and distances from 5K to 50 mile, to a Sunday point-to-point that tops out near 11,500 feet, this is mountain racing with teeth.Aaron shares the playbook behind the overhaul: hard-won permits through Coconino National Forest, alignment with resort management to unlock summer terrain, and a design that prioritizes big climbs, real technicality, and community. We dive into the 50-mile circumnavigation of the San Francisco Peaks caldera, why short doesn't mean easy, and how gnarly ski-run grades change pacing, fueling, and gear choices. If you're planning a late-summer or early fall schedule, we lay out who should target which race, how to prep for altitude swings and unpredictable weather, and why descending on tired legs might be the weekend's real decider.We also explore the competitive layer: potential prize purses, what scalable anti-doping could look like, and early conversations that align the event with skyrunning-style courses and live coverage. Flagstaff's running culture, from Buffalo Park sessions to big-vert weekends, frames the story, while the Snowbowl venue adds food, beer, and an easy basecamp to keep the community together between efforts. Whether you chase the uphill, stack a vert challenge, or go all-in on the point-to-point, Sky Peaks now offers a sharper test for elites and everyday mountain runners alike.If you enjoy the show, tap follow, share it with your crew, and leave a quick review so more runners can find us.

This week, we visit Marquette Michigan, a gem no matter the season. This fun town nestled on the shores of Lake Superior is home to Northern Michigan University and really knows how to embrace winter with a flurry of activities and festivals.We kick off the show with Susan Estler from Travel Marquette who gives us an overview of winter in MQT, and then quickly gets down to business with what we love the most, where to eat. You need to warm up at some point, right? And Marquette has an incredible restaurant scene to check out, from funky dive bars with great burgers (yes, we are looking at you Pat's Bar) to hip spots like The Delft Bistro, where you'll feel like you might be in a slightly larger city. Of course, we'll gush on and on about one of our favorites, and a must stop when in town, delicious Lagniappe, which is yes, located in a basement downtown. First and foremost, you don't want to miss the very popular (and fun!) Winterfest and Rail Jam which is happening January 31 to February 1, 2026. Billed as a "marathon of mountain culture", this weekend will feature ski races, live music, and a freesyle rail jam. A highlight is the Torchlight Parade happening Saturday night, please be sure to register at the front desk so you can get your glow on. Also, don't miss FRESH oysters apres ski at the famous T-Bar, you probably won't be finding those anywhere else in the Yoop this weekend. Sunday, enjoy more skiing and racing.Orignally opened in 1957 as Cliff's Ridge, Marquette Mountain Resort is beloved by both locals and visiting tourists alike. In winter, enjoy skiing and snowboarding via three chair lifts and a rope tow. In the warmer months, bring your mountain bike and explore the trails, or just strap on your hiking boots. Anyway you experience MMR, you are sure to have a great time. https://www.marquettemountain.com/Next, Jason Rolling, Race Director for the Noqueamon Ski Marathon, joins us to explain cross country ski racing to us, since there are several kinds of races you can paricipate in.  We found this extra helpful, because now we'll sound like we know what is going on during the Winter Olympics. Thank you Jason! Honestly, this race sounds like it's quite the experience. Jason also shares how important community support is for this race, from the volunteers, to local landowners granting permission for racers to cruise through their private land for the race. Just another reason to love our Yoopers. And, lookin ahead, the 2027 Noquemanon Ski Marathon will be held January 22nd-23rd, so you best start your training now.Finally, we meet Todd Poquette, Director of Adventure forthe Polar Roll, which is the largest fat tire bike race in Michigan, and part of the Great Lakes Fat Tire Series. There are three different races you can participate in on February 21, and we'll just leave you with the race's tag line...."it gets worse, before it gets better". Sounds like this one is for those with experience on the fat tire, we will be at the mass start, which sounds like it might be a little bit wild and right up our alley.We love Marquette, and hope that you do too. If so, be sure to check out the Respect Marquette pledge, and let's keep it amazing for all of us.

Her story flips the usual “runner interview” on its head, and it's rich in meaning.Guest journey & highlightsErica is married to a race‑director, which opened her door into the world of trail and ultra running from a different vantage point—supporting, creating, building instead of racing.On her 42‑acre farm in North Carolina (nestled between Asheville and Charlotte), she homesteads, grows endangered medicinal plants, sews sustainable slow‑fashion pieces, and dives deep into frameworks of wilderness, microbiome, community and true belonging.Her family's race event, the Hollis Hills Farm Revival (50 km, 25 k, 5 mile) is part trail run, part community fest, part land‑revival project.She speaks to how the ultra world (sometimes stereotyped as hyper‑competitive) can actually be profoundly welcoming to non‑runners, volunteers, supporters—the “behind the scenes” humans.Motivational takeaways: You don't need to be the person crossing the finish line to belong here. Contribution isn't always measured in miles. Sustainability, craft, community resilience—these are trail values too.
