Borderlands Trail and Ultra Running is a storytelling podcast for ultra runners who love the sport’s iconic races, legendary athletes, and culture. Hosted by Josh Rosenthal, founder of Borderlands Trail Running, the show captures defining ultra running stories—from time with Laz Lake to conversations with Scott Jurek, Dean Karnazes, and Camille Herron. We cover the full world of trail and ultra running: race analysis of Western States and UTMB, honest trail running shoe reviews and gear breakdowns (tested across 6,000+ miles), and conversations about where the sport is headed. You’ll learn: * What makes Barkley Marathons so difficult * How Western States works * The best trail running gear right now * Who the greatest ultra runners are * What dirtbag running culture means * How ultra running is evolving * What it takes to run 100 miles * What to eat for training and race day If you want stories, gear, and insight into trail and ultra running, you’re in the right place.
