Who would have thought that sipping French milk could land you a failed drug test? We're bringing you the fascinating story of cyclists Toon Ayerts and Sherry Boussoud who faced just that situation. We're diving deep into the mysterious world of anabolic steroids, bizarre food risks, and the impact of substances like letrosol on the human body.
Raising an alarm for all the trail runners out there, we discuss the bone-chilling incident of Tom Evans' mugging in Cape Town. With an increase in crime rates amidst economic turmoil, it's time to address the elephant in the room - How can runners ensure their safety, especially in potentially perilous areas? We've got some crucial insights for you on this front.
Finally, we're not shying away from the recent controversies shaking the running community. We discuss the UTMB's eyebrow-raising decision to not re-invite Kureen Malcolm back for Western States and explore its potential implications on their reputation. This conversation takes a detour into discussing the responsibilities of race organizations in ensuring gender equality and the importance of constructive criticism. Trust us, this is a conversation you wouldn't want to miss!
