“He Wore What at Western States?!” – Race Kit Chaos, Mont-Blanc Mayhem & Double Bob Drama
This week’s episode is a no-guest, no-filter deep dive into the latest chaos from the world of trail and mountain running.
Gary, Ben and Chris catch up on everything from racing disasters to record controversies — and yes, that Nike crochet top worn by Caleb Olson at Western States.
Ben recaps his latest block of orienteering and fell races, including a brutal run at the Mont-Blanc Half Marathon in 30-degree heat. Gary talks about getting back to mountain training in Snowdonia, climbing Tryfan and battling with Strava’s dodgy “moving time” stats.
There’s also a full Western States recap, from Kilian Jornet’s performance in the Kjerag 2s to Abby Hall’s dominant win — plus some big chat on New Balance’s rise, the growing African presence in trail running, and what the pro scene looks like in 2025.
Also: Faith Kipyegon’s sub-4 mile event, the exoskeleton suit Ben wants to wear on a Bob Graham, and the unfortunate running trend of… penis exposure mid-race. You’ve been warned.
