This episode is one of the coolest moments of our lives: interviewing Jim Walmsley! We met Jim way back in 2016, and since then, we have been two of his biggest fans. Reconnecting more than 7 years later after his course record triumph at UTMB was such a joy. Jim opened up about everything around UTMB, from his specific training approach to the emotional side of getting vulnerable, "failure," and finally achieving his big goal. Jim moved to France with his partner Jess, with everything pointed at this one event. How do you respond to adversity when so much is on the line in a very public way? He stepped into the fire with vulnerability and courage, and there are tons of lessons for anything you care about in life. Topics: the emotional side of achieving his goal, overcoming low points and failures, pressure, training volume, his approach to workouts, going dark on Strava before UTMB, how his training has changed over time, nutrition during and after runs, his next big scary goal, and his legacy in the sport. We can't wait for you to hear this one! We love you all! HUZZAH!

In this episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Tim Tollefson, a legendary ultra runner deeply rooted in our local community. Tim's extensive racing career has taken him across the globe, most recently to France for UTMB. With numerous first-place finishes and a plethora of podium appearances, Tim is a familiar face, known for his infectious smile, distinctive hair, and stylish eyewear on race days. We've invited him to share insights about the upcoming Mammoth Trail Fest, which kicks off on Friday, September 22nd. This event has generated quite a buzz among our NorCal circle, and we've delved into all the details.

We brought joy and so many spike proteins to this episode! The main training topic was on post-UTMB reflections about lower volume, higher energy training from the incredible Leah Yingling. You don't need to hammer your body to have success! We discuss why endurance training should uplift feeling good as a proxy for adaptation over time, starting at the cellular level and going all the way up to brain function. Healthy athletes crush b*tches! A background theme of the episode was the sickness going around our house, and what it looks like to BELIEVE when dealing with tough moments. Though maybe we should have believed in booking refundable plane flights to the Grindstone 100k. And there were tons of other fun discussions! Topics: acute versus chronic stress, volume accumulation, ultras and health, how our inner children might be guiding some of our athletic journey, the most uplifting story from a listener about their mile race, why Deion Sanders is our favorite coach, Coco Gauff's swag, Barry Bonds' Strava profile, heart rate changes across a season, interval duration, and hot takes. Make sure you stick around for a beautiful Listener Corner email at the end. You'll be ready to run through a brick wall afterward!

Norman finally made it to the start line of the UTMB after reading about it in a magazine fifteen years ago.  The idea of running through 3 countries, (France, Italy, Switzerland) has been on his mind ever since.  This is his race recap and Jodi's perspective of race crewing (well, kinda). Listen to hear his thoughts on the start line atmosphere, climbing over 10,000 metres, sleep deprivation, hallucinating, cutoffs, two sunrises and finally crossing the finish line!

Kia ora e te whānau. Cath Wallis lost herself in the midst of a career and the focus of raising family. Standing at the threshold of middle age, Cath honestly didn't know who she was anymore, and felt “invisible”. Growing up not-sporty, Cath felt that her foray into the world of ultra endurance events may be short lived, but six years, 9 ultramarathons, an intercontinental swim, and countless adventures later, Cath has proved herself wrong. This week, Matt spoke with Cath, who as well as all this is an Athletics Australia accredited coach and leader of Find Your Adventure,  a community for people who want to find themselves through adventure. We talk about Cath's history and beginnings,  the several multi-day desert adventures Cath has engaged in, and how a self-described “ordinary”* person can complete some extremely extraordinary things. Plus, for your listening pleasure we've got Daniel Jones calling in from Chamonix to run down his incredible 12th place at UTMB following his 5th place at Western States.

We continued the conversation with Heidi after the main show where she talked to us about a potentially race-ending situation that she had to deal with at the last minute before she even got to the UTMB start line. Luckily, everything worked out in the end, but the way she kept her cool and still achieved goal after a harrowing pre-race experience was truly amazing!She also talked about the emotional significance of getting to do such a special race, how much it meant to her and what she was feeling just as she started on her long journey.

Unboxing collab gear and shoes from Janji x La Sportia. Also talked about UTMB, shakeout run for Chicago, and GoPro 12

I've been gone for two weeks to watch World Athletics Championships in Budapest and then UTMB in Chamonix. I have so many stories.

This very special episode is coming to you from Chamonix, right after the finish of the UTMB races! We were all around the courses, screaming until our voices gave out, gathering up all the inspiration from the incredible athletes. Our goal is to transport you to France with us for the most historic year ever! For the optimal listening experience, consume this podcast with a warm baguette. The main stories were Courtney Dauwalter and Jim Walmsley at UTMB. Courtney redefined what is humanly possible this summer, and we discuss whether she is the best athlete ever across sports. Jim went all-in for his victory, moving to France to train on these trails. That course record is the payoff after years of hard work and belief. We are living in a moment of running history that will be talked about 100 years from now, and part of that future discussion will revolve around this year's race. How cool is it to be living history in real time?! And there were so many other awe-inspiring things to talk about! Topics: Zach Miller's ability to dig deep, the importance of confidence, the power of being a hype squad, our European experience, France hot takes, training thoughts, why we are attending the CHURCH OF THE BIG QUADS, how age may not be the limiter that some previously thought, the benefit of cross training, and so much more. We are extremely sleep-deprived, but more full of life than we have ever been before. The highs and lows of UTMB are metaphors for life, and this episode aims to bring you a steaming baguette of existence. We love you all! HUZZAH!

We traveled halfway around the world to bring you this very special episode from Chamonix, France, the site of the UTMB races later this week! Our sleep is low, but our spirits are high. The main topic was on initial reflections on European racing and UTMB later this week. Our biggest prediction is that North American runners are going to have some major success over here in the coming decade, and we explain why. It's not just because we are extremely biased, though that plays a role. That discussion built into a new study on "physiological resilience" and how there may be a new pillar of training theory. For those scoring at home, that means there are now 4 pillars in the literature. Bonus pillar?! Huzzah! That's not all! We chatted away the jet lag for one of our longest and most fun episodes ever. Other topics: the ubiquity of adversity, our deep thoughts on Europe, a wild new study on ultra endurance events and cognition, the evolutionary implications of the study, some breakthrough research on heat exposure and hemoglobin mass, hot takes, and an incredible listener corner. From that listener corner: "The race showed me that strength didn't come from doing the things I can already do, but trying the things I didn't think I could."

Doug Meyer wrote the book, The Race That Changed Running: The Inside Story of UTMB, and has been privy to many of the important stories behind this race over the years.   They discuss how Topher helped identify and join the UTMB as the founding sponsor when he was leading The North Face in Europe in the early 2000s and why he knew it was going to become one of the best races in the world.   Keith has a longstanding relationship with Catherine and Michael Poletti and pulls the curtain back on their dynamic. UTMB has been a passion project for the Polettis and, as Keith says, they have always focused on their values and what they believe is the spirit of trail running. The team discusses some of the disagreements and controversies that have grown from the race and how things need to shift to keep up with the developing sport and world.   Topher and Keith also discuss what it was like being part of The North Face family in the early days of race sponsorship. The race connected and created bonds with their work family that endure today. Watch on for more and make sure you subscribe to the Freetrail YouTube channel!

Outside of footwear, the pack is the most critical piece of running gear and you'll see a bunch of people trusting CamelBak throughout race week out on the trails around the Mont Blanc.   If you're here in Chamonix, there is a public event hosted by CamelBak on Thursday from 6-8pm at Folie Douce Hotel in Chamonix – there will be a panel discussion, followed by an open bar/mixer. They will also be previewing some of their 2024 products in the space. Again it's open to the public so feel free to stop by on Thursday, the Freetrail team will be there. If you can't make it, they have a booth at the expo, so stop by and check it all out.
