  • Episode 042: Canal Corridor, Indiana Trail, Oil Creek, and Nedd Finishes 1000!
    Oct 17 2024

    Tonight we kick it off by talking about Canal Corridor 100 and our friend Stephanie Campbell’s second place finish! Then we discuss the history of Indiana Trail 100 along with what a great community surrounds the race and go over the results from this year’s event. We also go over results from Oil Creek 100, Kodiak 100, and the Heartland 100. Then we talk about Bryon Powell from iRunFar who just competed in and won the Ultra Trail Gobi 400K stage race in western China. In addition we discuss race results from Cape Fear 24 hour race where costume chic was out there representing. We dive into a new 50K in Cascade Locks, Oregon called Angel’s Rest where they just had the inaugural running and now we both want to run it. Also, Free State Trail Run 40 miler was over the weekend and they had one finisher, spoiler alert she took first place overall. Nedd Brockman finished his 1,000 mile run in 12 and a half days. He didn’t break the world record but he did raise at least 2.6 million dollars for homelessness in Australia. Pretty impressive accomplishment all around. There is a fundraiser being done in western NC at the Old Fort Strong Endurance Festival December 7th and as we talk about some of our favorite ultrarunners will be out there. Proceeds will go to residents and businesses whose homes were damaged or lost due to hurricane Helene. We end with a guy that did a run during hurricane Milton, basically running through the storm, there is always one!

  • Episode 041: Courtney Does it Again, Nedd for 1,000, and a Taco Bell Ultra
    Oct 10 2024

    This week we start off by giving everyone in Florida our well wishes during this tough time with Hurricane Milton moving through. Then we discuss Courtney Dauwalter continuing her dynasty of high profile race victories by winning Nice Cote d’ Azur (UTMB) 100 mile and she was not far off from first place overall. Then we go over the Saddles 100 and 50 mile races in Prescott, AZ where two of our friends and favorite Ohio trail runners Chad Trumbo and Jay Smithberger competed in those races and did very well. We also discuss race resultrs from Cuyamaca 100K, Spooner’s Cove 50K, DC Peaks 50, Hennepin 100, Shawnee 50/50, Arkansas Traveller 100, and Yankee Springs Fall 50K. There is a new self-supported FKT on the 1,444 mile Buckeye trail. We take a look at Nedd Brockman from Australia who is trying to break Yiannis Kouros’s long standing 1,000 mile record of 10 days 10 hours 30 minutes and 36 seconds. Nedd is 6 days in and 900K deep so he has some ground to make up in the next 4 days. We end the show talking about the Taco Bell 50K race in Denver that Sage Canaday participated in recently. Sounds like you need an iron stomach to get that done. Johnny revisits a 50K that he did with some friends in Columbus where they stopped at multiple breweries throughout the run.

  • Episode 040: Mike Wardian AT, Hurricane Helene, Spartathlon, and The Bear
    Oct 4 2024

    Late release this week but better late then never! We start off talking about Mike Wardian completing his Appalachian Trail through run in 60 days. He had to battle the aftermath of hurricane Helene in order to get it done. We discuss the devastation of the hurricane and also the Yeti folks who pitched in and helped the people of Damascus after the Yeti 100 was cancelled. Then we look into the 153 mile Spartathlon road race in Greece. Camille Herron was back to defend her course record from last year but she had a lot going on with the wiki controversy. She DNF'd and we haven't heard much about why but I can imagine she was mentally distracted. We go over race results from The Bear 100, Dick Collins Firetrails, Flagstaff Sky Peaks, Mt. Taylor 50K, West Line Winder 50K, and Heritage 50K. Meredith Hughes set a new women's self-supported FKT on the Colorado trail west to east collegiate west. Courtney Dauwalter is racing in France this weekend and will be going for the outright win at Nice Cote d'Azure 115K which is no longer a Western States golden ticket race.

  • Episode 039: Tara Dower AT Queen, Anton is Back, and a Wiki Editing Controversy
    Sep 26 2024

    Huge episode tonight! A lot to talk about. Farley gives a run down of his experience running Mountain Lakes 100 over the weekend. We both are in awe of Tara Dower’s accomplishment setting the overall FKT on the Appalachian Trail, it’s truly impressive. We go over race results from Mountain Lakes 100. Then we talk about one of the icons of ultrarunning, Anton Krupicka, who came out of nowhere and took second at Grindstone 100. We go over the results of the other races at Grindstone. Also talk about the young gun Hans Troyer who ran Grindstone 100K and it was his first race since taking 10th at Black Canyon 100K, where he ended up in the hospital afterwards with rabdo. Unfortunately Grindstone didn’t go his way and he ended up with a DNF. We then talk about a possible shady maneuver the first place runner did to block the second place runner during a sprint to the finish at Mammoth Trail Fest 26K which was a Golden Trail World Series Event with major prize money on the line. We also go over the results from Mammoth Trail Fest races, the Barkley Fall Classic, the Cowboy 200, Pikes Peak Ascent and Pikes Peak (not quite) Marathon. Max King and Hayden Hawks both had some success at events overseas. We go over results from Dances with Dirt (Hell, MI), Flagstaff to Grand 100, IMTUF 100, and there is a new self-supported FKT on the Colorado Trail. Finally we end the show with the breaking news / controversy about Camille Herron and her husband + coach Conor Holt who got busted editing the wiki pages of other elite ultrarunnners to make them look less significant and editing her own page to seem more elite.

  • Episode 038: Tor Des Geants, Run Rabbit Run, RUT, and a Mt. Tam FKT
    Sep 17 2024

    Early release this week as Farley has an out of town race coming up this weekend. We start off today with results from Tor Des Geants, a beast of a race in Italy. Then we discuss Run Rabbit Run which was the 100 mile main event of the weekend in the U.S. We also talk about RUT 50K, a sky race in Big Sky, Montana. Then we talk about Remi Bonnet setting the Mt. Tam Hill Climb FKT right here in the Bay Area (Mill Valley). That FKT has been held by Jim Walmsley since 2017. Remi was in town for the Headlands 27K which is part of the Golden Trail World Series. We go over the results and speedy dual at the finish of the Headlands 27K. We also dive into this crazy unsupported 100 mile race that takes place in Plain, Washington. In addition, we look at an article from Run247 that describes some of the training that Jasmin Paris did leading up to her Barkley finish earlier this year. Finally, we give a status update for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian who are still out there kicking ass on the Appalachian Trail. All eyes are on Tara as she is closing in on the last few hundred miles with the overall FKT in sight. Go Tara!!

  • Episode 037: Point to Point Hundos: Wasatch, Pine to Palm, Mogollon, Superior
    Sep 12 2024

    This week we talk about the classic late summer point to point 100 milers that took place over the weekend. Results from Wasatch Front 100, Pine to Palm 100, Mogollon Monster 100, and Superior Trail 100. Crazy that all these juggernauts take place in the same weekend! We also discuss Hurricane 100K, Wy’east Wonder 50 mile and 50K, and YUTC 50K. Tor Des Geants is going on and John Kelly was having a great race until he wasn’t. Also, there is a new men’s 6 day record! Matthieu Bonne of Belgium broke a record that was set in 2005 by the multi day legend Yiannis Kouros. We end the show with AT updates for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian. They are in the same area! I (Farley) had a bit of technical difficulty during this recording so please excuse that.
