042. August 2022 - Trail running in review | UTMB, Sierre-Zinal and more

Thursday, September 1, 2022 • Duration 57:29

It was an incredible month of races and performances by so many inspiring athletes across the world.

UTMB week was a chance for the Vert.run team to finally meet and hang out together. Our founder Moisés raced UTMB and finished in under 25 hours. We had a great time meeting those of you who came to our Vert Run + Breakfast last week. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for coming to meet us in person.

We crewed and cheered the runners of OCC, CCC, TDS and UTMB. Our co-founder Kirsten Kortebein also ran ETC in Courmayeur!

We were inspired by the performances at Sierre-Zinal, where a new wave of African runners proved how much potential there is in trail running for them too. We cover in detail the results and the performances at Sierre-Zinal and Stranda Fjord Trail Race, last month's stages of the Golden Trail World Series, we talk about Trofeo Kima, Thyon-Dixence, Fletta Trail, Leadville 100, Comrades Marathon, Challenge Stellina and many more races.

041. Dillon Quitugua | Running the perimeter of Guam and empowering Pacific Islanders through trail running

Wednesday, August 17, 2022 • Duration 53:58

Dillon Quitugua is an Hawaiian trail and ultra runner sponsored by Janji.

Dillon recently ran the 100 mile perimeter of Guam, an island in Micronesia, in the Western Pacific. In doing so, Dillon wanted to change the perspective that Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders don’t do certain things outside the traditional paradigm. He wanted to empower his people and promote sport and physical fitness among his people. Dillon named the FKT after his father and he's now planning to organize a 100m race on the same route.

He's also founded The Tribe Collective, a project with the mission to empower individuals to be their best selves through unity and service, and uplift Pacific Islanders. The organization is launching a full scholarship for a Pacific Islander to travel and trek to the Everest Base Camp at the foothills of Khumbu Glacier in 2023.

Where did these ideas come from? how did Dillon get started with trail running? what was people's reaction to his feat?

Discover Dillon's story and follow his projects and adventures! @dill_daddy

039. July 2022 - Trail running in review

Thursday, August 4, 2022 • Duration 48:11

July was a relatively "more relaxed" month in terms of racing, compared to the previous month. We saw most of the elite athletes putting in great training blocks towards their big goals of the season, more shifted towards the end of the summer (UTMB week, Sierre-Zinal..). Nonetheless it was very exciting to follow the trail running scene and catch up with its diverse and fun community.

With the heatwave that we are experiencing in Europe, the glaciers melting and the landscape changing, we get the change to touch a very important topic: climate change and trail running, some ways to address this problem and how get involved in climate action. Some examples?

With the pause of the Golden Trail World Series - getting ready for Stranda Fjord Trail Race and Sierre-Zinal in two consecutive weeks, we followed in particular the World Mountain Running Cup, where the kenyan athletes Joyce Njeru and Patrick Kipngeno have a clean sheet with super impressive performances at Grossglockner Berglauf, Montée du Nid d'Aigle and Giir di Mont. We also followed the UTMB World Weries at Speedgoat, Val d'Aran by UTMB and Ultra Trail of Snowdonia, the Skyrunning World Series at Skyrace Comapedrosa and Schlegeis 3000 Skyrace, and some of the most famous, iconic classic races of our sport, such as Hardrock 100m (with victories by Kilian Jornet and Courtney Dauwalter) and Mount Marathon Race (where Allie McLaughlin set a new CR!)

038. Dakota Jones | Beyond just running. Environmental action, Hardrock 100 and an incurable curiosity for people and science

Wednesday, July 27, 2022 • Duration 01:11:03

Dakota Jones is a trail and ultra runner from Colorado and an environmental activist.

Coming off a third place finish at Hardrock 100m Endurance Run behind Kilian Jornet and Francois D'Haene, we sat down and chatted with him about everything that is going on in his life.

Dakota is not the average trail runner. He surely is one of the most established and successful athletes in the sport, having competed across the world over any distance and terrain, from VKs to 100 milers. But he's not just that. Dakota wants to use his broad impact on the trail running community to raise awareness towards the environmental issue and do something really impactful to protect our planet.

A few years ago he felt the need to go back to university, where he's currently studying mechanical engineering. He founded Footprints Running Camps, which aims to develop leaders in climate action, combining environmental education with direct action. He's a very curious and thoughtful person; he's passionate about everything he does, and when he does something you can be sure he goes all in.

We talk in detail about his Hardrock experience, what it felt like to race with Francois D'Haene and Kilian, the story of how he got inspired to run 100 miles by Kyle Skaggs - who paced him over the last 10 mile of the race - his friendship with Kilian.

We talk about science, environment, Footprints and the trail running community.

Lastly, we discuss his collaboration with NNormal, the outdoor brand founded by Kilian Jornet and Camper in 2022.

037. Hannes Namberger | Lavaredo Ultra Trail 2022 winner. How to perfectly execute an ultra trail race

Wednesday, July 20, 2022 • Duration 58:50

Hannes Namberger is a professional trail and ultra runner from Germany sponsored by Dynafit.

On the last weekend of June he won Lavaredo Ultra Trail, a 120km - 6000m of elevation race in the Italian Dolomites and one of the most famous and iconic ultra trail races in the world, this year part of the UTMB World Series.

We talk about his race strategy, including pacing, nutrition and hydration, how he prepared for it and how he had to restructure his training and racing plans after he got Covid, only 6 weeks before his goal.

We get very specific into training, talking about specific trail workouts, tapering for a trail race, cross training, winter training and more.

We also talk about balancing an elite runner's career with a normal job, how he got into the sport of trail and ultra running after being an alpine skier, how he's recovering from Lavaredo and how he's planning the next big goal of his season, UTMB.

Get inspired!
