Really enjoy the weekly thoughts on the trail and ultra world from Aaron and Ricky. Very topical and well
Informed. Keep an eye out for the special interviews too. The Kim Collinson, post spine one was superb. A in depth and well thought out interview that allowed Kim to really open up about his race experience.
