  • Less Allie Bailey please

    Generally this is a cracking podcast from a truly brilliant company and race organiser - informed, interesting and entertaining. Can we please realise however that there is such a thing as ‘too much Allie Bailey?’

    It’s hard to escape her and her clones in the ultra world right now…give all of us a rest please!

  • The Rounds

    Have been interested in the rounds for a while now so great to have a podcast that covers each of the big three. So much useful information in here. Will probably start with the Paddy Buckley (did DBR in 2021 and have developed a love of the region) and see where that takes me. Thanks for sharing.

  • Interview with Sonny Peart

    An intelligent, thought provoking, interesting and enjoyable discussion. Listen, because you will definitely learn something new... it really made me reflect on and challenge my own perceptions of how things are.
