When you get a chance to talk to a LEGEND- you do it. We could listen to Roch Horton talk for days. He has so many amazing stories and he has seen it all in the trail and ultra running community. 
With the growth of the sport we sit down and talk about the past, present and future- the good and the bad. As lovers of the trails and mountains we have an obligation to make sure we educate and advocate for a better future. 
Thank you Roch for letting us pick your brain and we here at TrailManners are in support of "The Book"!

It was a pleasure to get to sit in the "stands" at the Speedgoat Croquet Court and talk to the legend, Karl Meltzer about his FKT on the AT. We knew he had already sat down with so many people and shows in the past that we mixed it up a bit and asked him questions from our listeners to spice it up. 
We also were able to talk about the future of the SpeedGoat 50k and pick his brain on other trail running topics.
He mentioned "something" he is planning with Redbull and we can't wait to hear more. Enjoy the show and don't forget about BOTH of the cool contests!

Training for your first 100 mile trail race can be tough. Breaking your foot 9 months before your first 100 mile trail race can be frustrating. Running your first 100 mile trail race can be a overwhelming. Running your way to a 26:35 in one of the worst Bear 100's in history can be legendary!
When we heard Chelsea's story and her amazing accomplishment at this years Bear 100, we knew we had to get her on the show. Luck would have it and she agreed to sit down in Studio 78 to tell us her story. Congrats to Chelsea and all the people who toed the line at the Bear!

Its a little lonely for Singletrack Session #13- not only is Studio 78 in the shop but we are also without Joel. That means its a solo segment but we still bring you the goods.
Let's all take a moment for Studio 78 and wish for a speedy recovery.
Congrats to Mark Imasa and Paul Smith for winning the Salomon waist belts that were offered up by our friends at Palmer Divide Run Company. Mark and Paul- shoot us an address and we will get them right out.

Its always great when your guests runs the rainy trails to get to Studio 78 for a show. During a solid little downpour, Trevor Fuchs (like books with an "F") jumped on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail to meet up with us at 22nd st Trailhead for a very memorable show. 
He grew up in Boulder with a history or running in his family but it wasn't until he started to get unhealthy that he really started to get after it. 
We sat down with Trevor as he told the story of how he went on to win the Wasatch 100 by 3 seconds.
Thanks Trevor, we are sure we will see you on the trails.

With his long summer of travel and running finally winding down, we caught up with Tommy "Back-half" Barlow to get all the details. He became the 282nd person to officially complete the Grand Slam of Ultrarunning and the 18th person from Utah to do it. 
It got off to a rocky start with a injury that needed some last minute TLC before the long drive to Western but Tommy not only got his finish but he did it under 24 hours. He then followed that up with a couple sub 24's at Vermont and Leadville before tackling his home course in the Wasatch mountains. 
Thanks to Tommy "Back-half" Barlow for hanging out with the TrailManners crew.

We once again found ourselves walking the hallowed halls of AmerSport in Ogden, Utah. We figure if they see us around enough they will just hire us. We met up with Conor Wright, Manager of the AmerSport Factory Outlet, to talk about the big tent sale that kicks off on Friday September 23rd. Conor tells us about all the deals and what you can expect- you don't want to miss this if you are in the area. Then Conor was kind enough to donate a Suunto Ambit3 Vertical to giveaway in a contest: Have a listen or details.
Next we met up with Josh Korn and Mike Ambrose- these dudes are fast. We talked shop and had just a little fun ...cause that's what we do. We are excited to see what Salomon has planned of 2017 and so should you.
Have a listen and make sure you enter the contest.
Also- don't forget about our pre-order for TrailManners Boco Gear custom beanies- we only have 50 so get on it now.

Sitting in Studio 78 recording Singletrack Session #10 got a little dicey - we had a very feisty Yellow Jacket that either wanted backstage passes to the show or didn't have its morning cup of Joe. Either way we prevailed and talked about the past week as well as he week to come. 
Make sure you listen and jump on the Pre-Sale of the Custom TrailManners Beanies from Boco Gear. Have a great weekend and enjoy the show!

We were honored and humbled when we were asked to be at the Grand Opening of the Intermountain McKay-Dee Surgery Center & Orthopedics. We had an amazing time sitting down and talking to 5 wonderful people. This facility is a game changer for Ogden and we couldn't be more happy for our community.
The 82,000 square foot facility will feature Outpatient surgical services, physical therapy services including indoor and outdoor rehab areas and therapy pools, radiology, pharmacy, McKay-Dee Orthopedic & Sports Medicine and the Calton-Harrison Clinic.

We are so excited to launch Episode #50...yes 50- we can barely believe it. We wanted a great guest when we hit this milestone and well- it happened. Cory Reese was in town and we threw him in Studio 78 to talk about everything he has been up to: 2 weeks removed from finishing Badwater, 1 week into a Best Selling book launch and less than 24 hours after pacing at Wasatch, Cory made the time to talk to TrailManners. We had an absolute blast and we cannot recommend his new book enough. Please do your self a favor and go get it ....Now Go Get It! 
Cory is such an amazing guy and you can feel his inspiring presence immediately when you meet. Thanks Cory for jumping in the bus and thanks for all you do!
And don't forget to enter the contest(s)- we are giving away 2 autographed copies of Nowhere Near First: Ultramarathon Adventures from the back of the pack.

Fall is in the AIR! We took Studio 78 to one of our favorite places to open up our junk drawer to record Singletrack Session #9. We jammed a lot of info into one show as you can see in the show notes. 
We would like to make sure you see the link below for one of our friends and fellow bad ass trail runners from Boise. Ryan' s daughter has been in ICU since July. We can;t imagine what they are going through as a family but we wanted to show some support by posting the link to their GoFundMe page.
