The Trail Trash Podcast
Every week, three friends get together to talk about all the newest trends, latest races, freshest gear, and amazing adventures in the world of ultra running. Jason and John will guide you through the do’s and do not’s of race day, high’s and low’s of training, and allow you to learn from their mistakes through witty retellings, thoughtful insights, and practical advice to get you out the door and into the outer limits of what you thought was possible in your own running journey.
