    I’m not an ultra runner but I really enjoy this podcast. First, Dave is a humble guy who doesn’t mind sharing his fails as well as his wins. Second, his tech reviews seem very honest and practical, which is helpful. Third, I like the range of content, from running, to tech and other stuff. Worth a listen.
