Welcome to Episode 52 of Peak Pursuits, your ultimate podcast for everything trail running in Australia. This episode is hosted by Sim Brick, Vlad Ixel, and Brodie Nankervis as we celebrate one year of sharing our journeys and chatting all things trail running in Aus!
In this episode hear how Vlad is feeling ahead of his first ultra in a few years at the Aus Short Trail Championships at Five Peaks this weekend, before Brodie updates us on his return to running and the ever changing plan for the year that comes with a return from injury. Sim then details how she is preparing for the start of her Sky Running season in Asia, and with some gnarly races coming up in 3 and 4 weeks it’s all about the Vert!
The team then answer listener questions about watch faces, the current stats of trail running worldwide and their favourite workouts before diving into a bit of a different type of questioning where you will get to hear about Vlad’s 80s music habit, Brodie's love of Fantasy books and who everyone would want to have dinner with.
Finishing up back on some of the usual with results from Jabulani Challenge and a well timed update from Billy Curtis in Japan!
