The Western States Endurance Run is arguably the most prominent ultramarathon in all of North America. On this episode of the Trillium Running Podcast, we catch up with four athletes who are taking on that 100 mile challenge! Host John Shep speaks this week with Jeff Rowthorn of Happy Trails Racing, local trail legend Iris Cooper, ulltrarunner Francesco Riccadonna and Stoked Oats athlete Maddie Wighardt about their varied paths to Western States and what will drive them to the finish! And stay tuned for the end of the episode for a run-in by Western States celebrities Ian Sharman and John Medinger.
We also get a visit from Green Newton Adventures to share their newest race for August 17, 2024: Lines and Loops at Harold Town Conservation Area!
