Sam is currently (at time of writing) 42 days into his challenge to run 74 ultramarathons in 74 days in honour of his mum, who suffered a bleed on the brain at aged 74.

Sams challenge is finally gaining recognition and support and his fundraising has doubled overnight due to major media outlets picking ups on his story!

His story really is fascinating, so enjoy hearing it on rhetorical podcast. and obviously please donate to his cause!

The podcast teamed up with Kailas Fuga and Robin - The Running Accountant to put on the first Kailas Fuga shoe and gear test!

We headed to Edale to meet up with Pippa Ebel and Chris Chan from the marketing department of the largest trail running brand in China! To put on the very first gear test in the UK.
Everyone who filled in the form and turned up on the night, got to test out the new EX330 shoes and the AIR8 packs.
Robin had picked a jaunt up Mam Tor and back as the ideal way to test the gear out.
Once the gang of social runners returned they stuffed their faces on local cakes and swigged local beer from Intrepid Brewery.

When things quietened down, we did a podcast interview with Pip and Kailas Fuga sponsored runner Dave Ryan, about all things brand and we dive into the minutia of the gear on test.

Im sure if you don't already know who Kailas are, then you will veery soon!

Message Home Trails here - include an email or name for a response ⬅️

In this episode of the special pre-Spine race series I speak to the race media team.

Regular listeners will know that I’ve been involved with the race for the last couple of years as a volunteer and last year had the privilege to work on the media team.
So in this episode I catch up with the media pals to discuss the upcoming race, their predictions for the runners and how they are going to approach covering Britain’s most brutal race!

We also get some insights into Jenny’s recent race success at the Beyond The Ultimate Desert Ultra, where she explained that it is not too dissimilar to racing Citroen 2CV’s!

A short but great catch up with the team that constantly bang out the quality content that we all get to enjoy come January.

In this next episode of the pre-Spine race 2024 podcast series, I speak to James Nobles.

James is a returning guest on the podcast so we dive straight into the good stuff.
We talk about his recent 2nd place at the Cheviot Goat and how it has set him up for success at the fast approaching Spine Race in January.

We talk about his approach to training, nutrition and racing strategy as he contemplates lining up with some of the best ultra distance athletes assembled on the race.

James is a super humble guy and I have a feeling he will do well at Britain’s most brutal race!

Message Home Trails here - include an email or name for a response ⬅️

It’s that time of year again. Spine Race season!
From now until the end of the year we will be releasing special Spine race episodes.
We will hear from the team behind the scenes from the organisation, from the media team and from the runners themselves.
We will deliver the big names hoping to do well again and also throw in some wildcard entries to keep your eyes fixed on the dots.

First up we have Lindley Chambers, who is responsible for finalising the route and overseeing everything kit related. If you’ve had any involvement with the race personally then Lindley’s name will be familiar to you.
He may strike fear into the hearts of many, but deep down he is just a passionate runner who shoulders the heavy responsibility of making sure nobody gets hurt or lost on Britain’s most brutal race!

EXCLUSIVE! Interview With UTMB IRONMAN! They Tell Their Side Of The Story

Friday, November 17, 2023 • Duration 53:03

Message Home Trails here - include an email or name for a response ⬅️

In this special episode of the podcast I get the exclusive first interview with the IRONMAN UTMB group about the recent events with Gary Robbins WAM races and UTMB’s new Whistler Ultra Trail race.
I recently posted on social media that I was worried that we weren’t really hearing directly from them about what happened and their own perspective on what went down.
I got the chance to virtually sit down with Paul Huddle - Senior director of global trail running and Keats Mcgonigal - Vice president of North American operations and ask them all the awkward questions that we in the trail running community have been wanting to ask them!

Did they push out WAM intentionally? Or was it just a right place at the right time scenario?

Did they regret their decision to host the race on that same weekend in September?
How do they feel about the outpouring of anger towards Ironman for the announcement?

And most importantly, how do they, and how do we, all move on from all of this to get back to the sport that we all love. Trail running in beautiful places!

It was an eye opening interview for myself and I feel a lot more informed about what went down in Whistler.

But don’t just take my word for it. Have a listen and see if you feel any different.
Also please share the link for this episode everywhere you can on socials, so that more people get to hear both sides of this story!

Did UTMB and IRON MAN go too far in Whistler?

Wednesday, November 8, 2023 • Duration 01:01:46

Message Home Trails here - include an email or name for a response ⬅️

On this episode of the podcast myself and Ben Wells Runs Fells speak to Kate Allen from the RunUltra website.

Last week I wrote an article for the website discussing the current controversy surrounding the UTMB/Iron Man situation in Whistler.

We have an unbiased conversation about who could be to blame (if anyone even is) and how the trail running community around the world have reacted to the announcement of their new race in British Columbia.

We talk about the ethics of the decision to put the race on the same weekend that Gary Robbins and his Coast mountain trail running normally have their own WAM races.
We chat about if it’s intentional, or just bad timing. Have a listen and decide for yourself.

Kate also tells about the new inov8 store that’s opened up in Bakewell, serving the needs of trail runners in the Peak District.
We also have the usual catch up about injury and the Spine race, so for those of you who play, get your Spine Bingo cards out!
