Trail Lore: Barkley, Learning Moments, and Racing Culture

Episode notes

Two weeks ago, we were all glued to Keith Dunn’s twitter page refreshing for updates on ultrarunning’s best-known secret. So this week, Corrine and Buzz dive into the Barkley Marathons (also see our beautiful photo piece on the race).

Corrine interviews Eric Sutliff about trail running in the South and the things he’s learned since his first ultra. You can read his piece for Like The Wind magazine about his first 50K on UltraSignup News.

Then, Buzz speaks to a real runner about what to do when another trail runner might need help.
