Welcome to Episode 129 of the Trail Running Ireland Podcast.

In this weeks show we analyse once again the topic of optimum fuelling strategies, revisiting our analysis of Tim Noakes latest paper that we discussed in our last show while looking at the recent research paper on fuelling from James Morton's who has worked with British Cycling, Team Sky, elite marathoners, and who is very much in favour of high carbs for prolonged intense exercise.

How do both papers apply do us as Trail Runners? René Borg from Running Coach Ireland is here to discuss.

Everyone, get your running gear on, lets go!

Welcome to the Episode 76 Highlights Show of the Trail Running Ireland Podcast, sponsored by EcoTrail Wicklow 2023! 

Last week we had a really special guest on this episode of the podcast: one of the best Trail Runners of the past decade, not only results wise but somebody who has inspired many on and off the trails and continues to inspire after she came back literally from the brink of everything ending after a race fall when her racing career and her life looked over. She had to dig deep, deeper then she had to ever go before on the path to recovery and she bounced back to the top of the Trail Running World. Last week we chatted to Hillary Allen. Hillary will be at EcoTrail Wicklow on September 30th in a few weeks time.

Imagine a scenario when you are at one of the biggest trail races in the world, the temperature turns, freezing conditions set it, hard rain turns to hard golf balls of sleet and lightning is striking the ground just metres away. How would you react, what would you do? Well John Williams found himself in the middle of that terrifying electric storm last week at Val Daran by UTMB and in last weeks show, John told us all about it and how it´s unfortunately the second time that John has been involved in a UTMB race that has been suspended.
