This week on Tea & Trails, we’re joined by a runner who’s redefining what it means to go the distance, Lizzie Gatherer. From her first ultra to a jaw-dropping 208-mile effort at the Backyard Ultra, Lizzie’s journey is one of resilience, curiosity, and chasing joy with every step.
She’s not just a runner, she’s a mindset master, a fuel strategy tinkerer, and a proud member of Team England. We’ll dive into what drew her to the unique world of Backyard racing, how she trains for the unknown, and the friendships and places that keep her grounded.
So grab your trail shoes, snacks and a brew. This one's a celebration of hope, heart and the magic of showing up.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
