Alright folks- you spoke we listened. After the Best of last week we got some feedback and decided to throw out the #2 show- Luke Nelson. Is it a coincidence that these 2 shows were shot the same day, same location and pretty much the same time?
Enjoy the show- next week we are back to game on!

As we regroup from family loss and family surgery, we will bring back our top played episode to date. Congrats to Turd'l for pulling this off- So much fun and loads of laughs.
Enjoy the show and have a great week!

Ladies and gentlemen, we are jumping head first into a new world for us here at TrailManners....Google Hangouts. We have so many people we want to talk to and getting face to face is nearly impossible so we tried our first show through the web. While we are happy with ho it turned out we know we can dial it in more. Thank you for your patience.
We are thrilled to have on one of our favorite guests for a second time- Ty Draney. He is everything that the sport embodies. He recently headed to Tennessee to have a go at The Barkley Marathon. Have a listen to the show to hear a little bit more about his experience. 
For more info on the race  heck out the documentary HERE.

Here on the TrailManners podcast we seem to always be talking about "our guy"- you know the one that helps keep our body working and on the trails. Well we booked some time for Nate to join us to talk about what he does and why we need it. Nate is our unicorn, the almost mystical person who people love but decide not to drop the name too much so "our guy" isn't to busy for us. 
He is no stranger to athletes- he was once a semi-pro football player and has worked on olympians, collegiate stars, key local athletes and of course the running community. He has been seen at the Hardrock 100, Wasatch 100, Bear 100 and the Buffalo Run to name a few. 
We all need "our guy" or "our gal" to help us reach our goals and have a healthy life. 
We would love to hear who you have in your area so send us a message and we can pass it along.
Enjoy the show everyone and THANK YOU for supporting us.

It has been pretty easy to start a show saying we have a special guest but this episode reached a new level. Friend and local runner Kelsy Bingham has met challenges head on- NCAA Division I women basketball- Sweet 16, pro cycling, motherhood and being a new trail runner but less than 5 months ago she found out she had a rare form of cancer and a new challenge to take on. 
We see so much negativity and heart ache everyday so being able to sit down with Kelsy and have her tell us her story is so inspiring. We knew her story but after we walked away from this show we were in awe. She is as tough as they come and as humble as you can be. Kelsey, thank you for sharing this with us and we look forward to sharing the trails with you soon- you are amazing!

When we talk to a guest we have never met or spoken to, we get a little nervous. After Amy sat down we knew we were going to have a gem of a show on our hands. Amy came down from Great Falls, MT to run her 1st ever 50 mile trail race. Soon as she finished she came on over and sat down for a show that was full of laughs. Our 4th show from the island will not disappoint. Thanks Amy for putting up with us and good luck in your future endeavors.

She did it! Jacquie King finished her first 50 mile trail race and within 5 minutes we had her behind the mic and getting her thoughts on the day. It was great to get in her head and listen to what she had to say about her race, beer, quitting her "adulting job" and future goals for racing. Thanks Jacquie and good luck moving forward.

Our next show in the Buffalo Run Series is with Zac Marion. Zac is a local guy who is always smiling at these events. He had a good day running the 50 mile race - placing 1st and then took some time sit down with us and talk shop. Thanks Zac and good luck in 2016.

Studio 78 may not have wanted to go to the island but the crew here at TrailManners wasn't going to miss it. We were excited to be there and to grab a few people to talk too after a finish.
Our first guest we got behind the mic was Leslie Howlett and she was coming off a solid 5:01 finish in the 50k.

Happy Saint Patricks Day! We have another bonus show for you- this time from Park City Running Company. We were happy that Canice took the bait and accepted the invite to be on the show. When we arrived he served up some Dirty Chai's and it was game on. With the chance of sounding like a broken record- Canice is an amazing guy and you can just feel how passionate he is about what he does. He has established an absolutely amazing run store while keeping the community in mind. It was an absolute pleasure to get to know Canice and hear the story of PCRC as well as talk about his own story of comebacks and running. Good Luck at Western States Canice- GO GET IT!
Stopping and support PCRC or check them out- www.parkcityrunningcompany.com

We had an amazing time getting together at Park City Running Company with Suzanne Lewis. She embodies what the trail community is about and we are already looking forward to our next show with her. She is not only a rockstar runner but also a dietician and nutritionist. She shares her secrets and educates us along the way. After you listen to the show, be sure to email us some questions that we will jot down and cover next time we have her on. 
Thanks again Suzanne and good luck at Western States!

Dude- BONUS! Yep- we are throwing out a bonus show. There is so much happening we had to launch an extra one. The past couple shows we discussed pacing and crewing so Episode #18 dives into- No Pace, No Crew. 
We don't want to spoil the show with a lot of text- have a listen and let us know what you think.

Bonus talkNo Pacer?No Crew?Stop by and say Hi on the Island

We are BACK IN THE BUS- Studio 78 never felt so good. The bus braved the rain and pulled into the Beus Trailhead in beautiful Ogden, Utah for a fun show. After we cover some of the basics we got right after it.
Special guest- Crew Master/Studio78 repairman and all around good guy Lane Farka joined us to cover the ins and outs of crewing. Last week we covered pacing so the next logical step would be the best way to crew your runner. Although there is no "perfect" way to do it- we try to discuss the things that can make it a success. Being a part of a crew means you are part foot doctor, treasure map reader, nutritionist, cab dancer, motivational speaker, time manager and responsible friend. It may not all be roses and rainbows but to see your runner reach their goal is priceless.
Don't forget to leave a reply on Facebook for a chance to win a free entry into the Beaverhead 100k or 50k.
Also, don't forget to share the show and invite your friends to listen!
And lastly- make sure you come by and say HELLO at the Antelope Island races- Studio 78 will be there and we we be doing some interviews.

After we catch up on some local weekly news we jump right into a topic that is dear to our hearts- pacing. Now pacing a trail/ultra race is a totally different ball game than pacing at a road race. 
How do you select a pacer? What makes a good pacer? What are a pacers duties? Pacing pros and cons? Pacer preparations? Do you need a pacer? Is there pacing pressure? Pacer gifts? Car drops?
We dive into all these topics and hope to answer some questions and entertain you at the same time. Make sure you listen to the end so you can jump in and participate in the next TM contest. We look forward to hearing those great pacer stories!
Thanks for listening...enjoy!

Did you miss us? We sure missed you. After an amazing trip to DC we are back and firing on all cylinders. We thought we would start by catching up on a few race results from Moab and Black Canyon. A couple early season races in amazing places. Congrats to those who punched tickets to the "big dance"- Western States 100 and all those who got out. 
We had to take a few minutes to give a huge thanks and shout out to Mr. Jim Skaggs from Buffalo Run Adventures for all his support and help through the years. The Buffalo Run is fast approaching and registration closes on February 29th. Don't put it off any longer- register! The island is a magical place to run and the finish line party is crazy fun- plus you can get some amazing Buffalo Stew.
We close it out with some tips from our very own Joel Hatch on strength training. He throws out some great advice and helps answer a few questions to get started.
Thanks again for listening and don't forget to visit the site soon for some great TrailManners gear!
