Adam Lee lives in Crowsnest Pass, Alberta and is an avid trail runner and podcaster. His show , the Community Trail Running  Podcast,  was a big influence on my decision to start this endeavour. In this episode we get a brief history of Adam and his running story and we talk about his involvement in brining the Trail Running Film Festival to locations in B.C. and Alberta. Adam has always been helpful when I needed help picking out a microphone or when I was trying to figure out how to edit a podcast. He’s recently helped our group of collaborators to bring the Trail Running Film Festival to Regina! Be sure to check out his podcast ! He will be interviewing many of the filmmakers from the Film Fest in upcoming episodes.

Théo Dow is a super interesting and well studied runner who is achieving big things in the running scene. After starting trail running in 2021 he has quickly ascended to the top of the running food chain in Saskatchewan. In this episode we talk training, the reasons he enjoys running and we talk about his big performances at Sinister 7 in 2025 and his big podium finish at the Reesor 50 in 2026. We also have a fun conversation about how we first met and how both of us were new to ultra running and perhaps didn’t understand the spirit of ultra running like we do today.

It’s only a couple weeks away! Canada Goose 2026. A 6, 12 or 24 hour event where people run 4 kilometre loops around Wascana Park sounds like an awful way to spend a day but it’s actually a bloody good time! The community real comes together and makes this feel like an all day fun fest where people suffer together and see familiar faces the whole time. This year Jackie Myers and Melissa Burns will be running the show and in this episode we get to know them and their reasons for becoming the race directors of this iconic Regina running event and what you can expect on race day.

Marcella is a runner from Regina. On this episode we talk about her recent accomplishment at the Canada Goose Ultra where she ran her furthest distance ever even though Mother Nature was making it difficult with rain and lightning. We also talk about her training and why she is such a tenacious and determined runner. (CORRECTION- I wrongly said that she has two boys but in reality she has a boy and a girl- my apologies)
