ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week on Mid-Run Chat, hosts Amy and Suzie dive headlong into the exhilarating world of trail, fell, and mountain running. With Amy coming from a track, road, and cross-country background, she’s keen to find out from Suzie what's going on in the Fell, Trail and Mountain running world. And why it’s drawing so many runners from the roads.
Since Suzie moved to North Wales she has been running off road in the hills and now organises mountain races. She tries to explains all to Amy. - The legendary Dragon’s Back Race that took place this week, a grueling six-day journey stretching across Wales, from Conwy in the north down to Cardiff in the south.
- The soaring popularity of events like the UTMB and the vibrant local fell races that bring runners together for epic challenges and stunning scenery. - Incredible FKT (fastest known time) from Lucy Gossage on the Pennine Way.
Whether you’re a road runner curious about the trails or a seasoned mountain goat, there’s something here for everyone.
