Vert.run co-founders Moi Jiménez and Max Keith join host Francesco Puppi for a deep conversation on the evolving trail running scene in Latin America, the return of The North Face Endurance Challenge Chile, and the cultural roots that make South American trail running so unique.
They dive into the growing presence of Latin American athletes on the world stage, the challenges of distance, visibility, and sponsorship, and what it takes to build a truly global and inclusive sport.
Later, the trio breaks down the latest evolution inside the Vert.run app — the new Athlete Timeline and VIBE Score — exploring how balancing life stress, recovery, and training load can help athletes train smarter, not harder.
If you’ve ever wondered how to align your life and your training, or how the future of trail running is being shaped across continents — this one’s for you.
