TrailManners
Welcome to the TrailManners Podcast! The place where the trail community comes alive!
I’m your host, Aric Manning, coming to you from the beautiful trails of Ogden, Utah — and connecting you to the trail, ultra, and mountain running community everywhere.
Since 2015, we’ve been chasing dirt, vert, and stories that inspire — from epic adventures to everyday trail legends.
TrailManners is about capturing the moment: the possibility that everyday has the potential to be the best day of your life. Every day.
We promise to always bring our passion and love for the trails as well as a healthy appetite for cheese curds and a solid IPA.
We want to thank you for taking this journey with us.

HE DID IT! We had Preston on the podcast a few weeks back as he prepared for his 2nd 100-miler and 1st Western States 100. He threw down a goal of sub 24 and he went out and got it.
We want to congratulate Preston again for his accomplishment and hard work. He not only is a fantastic trail runner but a great dude!
Listen to his race breakdown- it's awesome!

TrailManners
I feel extremely fortunate to have been involved with the trail running community since 2006. Whether it is running, racing, podcasting, race directing, being a team manager, product testing, HUMR founder or a volunteer- the friendships I have forged with so many amazing people will always be my greatest memories. Mountains and trails are my passions and I can’t say no to a good adventure.
Bringing TrailManners to life has been life changing and a dream come true. I am so happy Joel Hatch and I started this journey way back in 2015 - now let’s see where else it can take us.
