All Episodes

Every so often we get requests and questions that revolve around a past episode. As part of out "Best Of" shows we have done in the past, we are re-launching the show we did with the legend- Roch Horton. So much of what Roch talks about is just timeless and a good reminder to us all.

The tables get turned as we get interviewed by Leia from our local newspaper (Ogden Standard-Examiner) in this edition of the Singletrack Session. Leia asks some fun questions and really makes us think. Thanks Leia and the Ogden Standard-Examiner for coming out and getting us even more out of our comfort zone.

Studio 78 has seen its fair share of guests but Episode #83 brought Anna Frost to the Captain's chair for an absolutely memorable episode! Frosty is as real as they come. She makes everyone around her feel comfortable and special at the same time. She loves taking about "you" and talks about herself only when asked. Her presence is bigger than her posters and banners you see around the world and leaves people with a smile to equal it. It was an absolute honor and priveledge for us to spend a couple days with her. Thank you Anna- you are amazing!

We are back with Jeff Hart and Part 2 of his training road/trail to Hardrock. Jeff has been having a small bout with some niggling injuries but he still has his sights set on Silverton. We take a good look into some of the mentail games our mind and body can play. Thanks goodness we were there to prescribe some IPA and Cheese curds! Thanks again Jeff- we are rooting for you!

Things over at the TrailManners Global HQ are getting crazy. So close to the first ever Ogden Trail Running Festival and we are all over the place. We want to thank everyone for all their support with not only the festival but also for the almost one and a half years of listening to the show. We do make a special announcement about some plans for later in 2017 and beyond- big stuff!

One of the things we really look forward to is when we can get some guests on the show that have been around the scene for awhile. The stories, the changes and the evolution of the sport are fascinating. Erik has been doing ultras since 2005 and his race resume speaks for itself. We were pumped to get him on the show to talk a little bit about the sport and its evolution but also talk about his experience over the last 2 years of heading out to run the Barkley Marathons.

We got some big news before we recorded the show so we went on location to Roosters Brewing Company in Ogden, Utah (again). Earlier in the day we got a message from our official brewer- Jacquie Wright, that out Trail Festival beer was ready for sample. We couldn't be hoppier (see what we did there). Jacquieis the first guest we have had join the Singletrack Session and after she headed back to work we covered more vital trail running news. Have a listen.

Episode #80 is loaded with some local brew, delicious deep fried cheese curds and a two-time guest: Melissa Solomon. If you remember we had Melissa first on for Episode #76 where she told us here amazing story into running and her new life. She let it slip out that she was running her first 100 mile race and we warned her she would need to come back on and give us play by play. Well, she agreed and thus we have another fun time sitting down with Melissa!

Part of a new series we will be doing is checking in with Jeff to see how his training is going, his mindset, goals, fears and all things associated with the race.

A message from the RD of The Barkley Marathons #bm100:
i wish i had never said 6 seconds...
gary had just come in after having run off courseand missing the last 2 miles of the barkley.that is, of course, not a finish.
i do, however, always record when runners come in,whether they are finishing a loop, or not.so, i had looked at the watch,even tho there was no possibility that he would be counted as a finisher.
so, when someone asked if he had gotten in before the limit;i foolishly answered.
i never expected the story to somehow become that he had missed the time limit by 6 seconds.he failed to complete the course by 2 miles.the time, in that situation, is meaningless.
i hate it, because this tale perpetuates the myth that the barkley does not have a course.the barkley is a footrace.it is not an orienteering contest,nor a scavenger hunt.the books are nothing more than unmanned checkpoints.
the boston marathon has checkpoints.and you have to show up at all of them or you can be disqualified...
that does not mean you are allowed to follow any route you choose between checkpoints.
now, the class with which gary handled this terrible disappoinmentat the end of a truly magnificent performance...that was exceptional,and is, in and of itself, a remarkable achievement.
but he did not miss the time limit by 6 seconds.he failed to complete the barkley by 2 miles.

Our interview with Gina Lucrezi has been in the works for a few months and we finally got this rockstar on the mic! Gina’s a talented runner and when we look at her running career you’ll be surprised at her ability to compete at just about any distance: D3 NCAA 1500m indoor National Champion, USATF 10k trail National Champion, 5th (1st American Female) at the rugged CCC 100k in Chamonix France, 1st place Silver Rush 50 miler,   2nd place Leona Divide 50 miler, FKT on Mt Whitney, and this is just a smattering of her results, whew!
 
Our interview is broken up into 2 segments due to a dropped phone call. The first segment we discuss her bEAST coast roots, how she got into running, and her journey to the Wild West. The second half of the interview we dive into the story of the Trail Sisters and why ever female runner should have a “Trail Sister”.
 
We hope you enjoyed our interview with Gina and watch out for her this summer as she travels the USA in her new Sprinter spreading the Trail Sisters luv.

It has been 6 months since we have sat down in Studio 78 with a guest so we thought we would celebrate with a superstar! Annie MacDonald has had a full life- full of everything you can think of. She approaches each day with her trademark smile and amazing attitude. Her journey to this point is nothing short of remarkable. Annie sat down with us and opened up about her struggles and her triumphs. 
Thank you Annie for taking the time to sit down with us and let us get to know you better. You are a real life hero and we are lucky to call you a friend.
