In this episode of the Trail Mix Running Podcast, Nick and Steven are joined by teacher, coach, and women’s six-day distance world record holder Meg Eckert for a wide-ranging conversation reflecting on 2025 and looking ahead to what they’re chasing in 2026.
Meg shares what excites her about running, her favorite song to put on when she's hitting a steep mountainside trail, and what she thinks about the potential of multi-day efforts as the sport continues to evolve. Together, they explore lessons learned, goals worth pursuing, and what it means to stay curious and motivated over the long haul.
