Western States season is here, and we are fired up! In this episode of the I Don’t Know Running podcast, Lewis and Mitch dive deep into what makes the Western States 100 the most iconic ultra of them all—from personal memories to the 2024 race preview.
We talk Killian’s return, Walmsley’s surprising drop, the rise of 70+ age group finishers (including an 80-year-old!), and predictions for the men’s and women’s podiums. Plus, we break down Brian Steinberg’s incredible 5-hour YouTube documentary and share how you could pace Killian Jornet this year. Yes, seriously.
👉 Whether you’ve run it, crewed it, or just dream of the golden ticket, this episode is full of love, laughs, and a whole lot of ultra-nerd energy.
📌 Let us know in the comments:
Who do YOU think is going to win Western States this year?
Got a favorite moment or memory from the race? We’d love to hear it.
