All Episodes

We hit a first at TrailManners and did our first 2 part show. While away for Thanksgiving, Aric sat down with Chad and Jeremy from Palmer Divide Running Company in Palmer Lake, Colorado. Chad pulled the bourbon from the filing cabinet and it was pretty much game on and for the next 2.5 hours we covered it all- From redneck triathlons to glitter canons, from glutenfreesingles.com to Colorado's Most Okayest Race team we left no stone unturned. Enjoy Part 1 and stayed tuned for Part 2- it is loaded with more laughs and a contest you are not gonna want to miss.

Joel may be on the mend but it didn't keep him from getting behind the mic for Singletrack Session #16. Soon as he found the right chair and settled in we were good to go!

Well folks, as we gear up for our 1 Year Launch Anniversary next week we thought it would fun to revisit the birth of the show. We have come along way in 60 Episodes and we are so excited for the year to come. We have some big guests lined up and some special surprises we have been working on for months.
Enjoy Episode 0 and thanks for making this so much for us!

It's always fun sitting down doing a Singletrack Session- sometimes we just don't know where it is going to go.

We are always talking about different "tools" you can use to keep you running and performing strong. On this episode we headed to Stone Cold Cryotherapy and Aric got in the tank to see just how it works. Luckily he was wearing wool socks, neoprene booties and of course gloves. 
Ty talked us through the process and we cannot wait to test it out even more when things ramp up again. We definitely recommend giving it a try.
Thanks Ty for the session and for the time! Stone Cold Cryotherapy is going to be on our Christmas list for sure!

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.
