Send us Fan MailHave you ever charmed your way into love while chasing horizons on foot? Christopher McDougal, author of "Free to Run," joins us with tales that sprint through the intersections of romance and running. He recounts the serendipitous beginnings of a 25-year marriage, born from a temporary job swap and a proposal interception, against the backdrop of his life now in Hawaii. His approach to training—mixing hill sprints with long runs—might just have you rethinking the way you lace up your sneakers.As we touch on the seasonal dance of training, rest, and indulgence, McDougal draws parallels between grizzly bears and athletes in off-season hibernation. He shares insights on Kenyan marathoners' diets and the need for personal downtime, mirroring the solitude sought by endurance elites like Courtney Dauwalter. The conversation takes a turn through McDougal's literary journey, where he debates stepping away from the running narrative to dive into the uncharted waters of competitive body surfing, likening its nascent allure to ultra-running's early, less commercialized days.Body surfing's minimalist joy, the evolution of trail running gear, and the rich stories behind ultra races—this episode is a mosaic of endurance sports culture. McDougal muses on the possibilities of monetizing bodyboarding and the protective nature of its community against the riptides of fame. We wrap up over 500 episodes of adventure, misadventure, and heartfelt stories, reflecting on the colorful cast of past guests and the vibrant life of an author who continues to push the boundaries of endurance, in print and in the Pacific surf. Join us for a ride through the waves of life and laughter—all while keeping your running shoes (and maybe even your surf fins) at the ready.Love the podcast and these videos?

Strap in for a rollicking journey through the worlds of running and parenting, as we reminisce about Roger Ballester's 4-Minute Mile and find humor in the trials of raising kids today. Whether it's JD's icy challenge or my own 10k personal victory, we celebrate the peaks and troughs that accompany these life adventures, and even share a chuckle over the all-too-familiar signs of a newbie runner.Navigating a race is as much about mental grit as it is about physical endurance, and we're dissecting all the components, from the caffeine-fueled dashes to the camaraderie of run-through events. We consider the balance between community spirit and competitive drive, and don't forget to tip our hats to the amazing volunteers who turn these events into a reality. If you're pondering your next run, we've got insights on personal bests and the strategic gameplay of obstacle courses to help you lace up with confidence.But it's not all about the runners—let's talk about the unsung heroes in football: the goalkeepers.

Send us Fan MailAs the sun sets on my tenure as a UTMB commentator, the parallels between tough breakups and difficult career transitions have never been clearer. This week, Corrine Malcolm joins us to unravel the emotional and professional complexities of the trail running world, from the strategic depths of biathlon to the lessons learned in ultrarunning's unforgiving embrace. Together, we dissect the intricate balance required in commentary – the blend of authenticity and diplomacy – and how the commercialization through initiatives like the UTMB World Series is reshaping the sport's landscape and its community.Trail running broadcasts often don't capture the full story, particularly when it comes to women's races. In our conversation, we tackle this head-on, discussing the behind-the-scenes hurdles that can lead to unequal coverage and the innovative strategies that could level the playing field. Furthermore, Corrine and I delve into the navigation of athlete-brand relationships and how understanding mutual expectations can lead to more fulfilling partnerships. Amidst all, we underscore the significance of athlete voices in shaping the trail running future through professional associations.Closing out the discussion, we reflect on the poignant personal narratives of fellow runners and the deep connections forged through shared endurance trials. As your host, I remain ever-passionate about advocating for our community's interests above organizational agendas, striving for transparency and integrity in the evolving world of trail running. The essence of our sport is at a crossroads, and together, with the insights from voices like Corrine's, we're committed to preserving its heart and soul while eagerly embracing the changes ahead.Love the podcast and these videos?
