    Ep. 123 Canadian Mountain Running Championships. With Jade Belzberg
    Nov 18 2024
    “I really enjoy the act of creating. I mean, running, I love running. I like the physical exertion part of it, but then I really value the creation that I can do with writing. So I find that's just a really helpful way to process the race for me and then to be able to share something of my experience with others.”Jade Belzberg has been journalling since she was 5 years old so when it comes to putting her thoughts onto paper (or the screen), she’s a seasoned veteran. She’s also a seasoned champion when it comes to trail running, as her resume includes a bunch of very impressive finishes. Two silver medals at the recent Canadian Mountain Running Championships are part of that impressive resume, and Jade mentioned that moving back to Canada and learning who the strong competition is here has been a bit of an adjustment. She’s made that adjustment and been able to stay within herself. Keeping calm and level-headed is how she competes.“I'm super excited. I'm super motivated, but I don't feel like I get a lot of… I'm not someone who gets like a runner's high after, and I'm all stoked after the run. It just feels like another part of my day, which I really value. But I feel pretty level throughout the day. Because it was so new when I was first starting out, there were more endorphins attached to it. That's pretty rare these days. And even going into races, I'm a really... I'm quite calm compared to my competitors. And that's just how I like it. I think I thrive better with that.”Jade was a ton of fun to chat with. She’s just getting through a move and her and her partner have twenty animals they take care of as well! To say she has been busy while competing is an understatement and I’m grateful she was able to take some time and chat. I think you’ll enjoy the conversation as much as I did, make sure to let us know! The Long RunEpisode 2 with Keeley Milne was another huge success. Chantelle Erickson and I are grateful Keeley came on and shared her story and we’re thrilled these episodes have been received so well. Next week we have Crossing Lines on the podcast and we can’t wait to share that one with you. The downloads have piled up and we’re excited to keep them coming. Make sure to check out Keeley’s episode if you haven’t already:Food Fight FridayI enjoy doing these shows with Jason Bahamundi. The latest episode I got to honour my father by choosing three “meals” he used to make. Jason had fun answering and shouted out a dish his dad made as well. It was so much fun!#Naaksquad - Try it and get 15% offI enjoy the Naak products, even if the sauces took a few tries to grow on me. They get the job done and they don’t give me any issues, and isn’t that the point? So I applied to be part of the squad to get a discount on the products I plan on using a bunch.

  • Ep. 122 Trail Running NZ. With Bradley Houghton

    Ep. 122 Trail Running NZ. With Bradley Houghton
    Nov 11 2024
    “I kind of always thought if you hear yourself say someone should do that, it's a good sign, that you should be doing that. If you'd read that or listen to that or want that, someone else probably would as well.”Bradley Houghton realized there was a need that could be filled in the New Zealand trail running scene. As someone who loves the sport, he wanted to shine more light on all the amazing races across the country. So he started Trail Running NZ and it’s been growing ever since. The growth is a happy accident of sorts, as he got into trail running because a road marathon didn’t go so well, and he thought a trail ultra couldn’t be any worse. The rest, as they say, is history, and now Bradley is a big part of the coverage of trail running in his home country. “I found myself, the more I kind of drill into something the more obsessed I get with it and so it's like you want to cover more. But you don't want to start sending three emails a week. So it kind of naturally gets a bit bigger. But really, it's all about the results.”Bradley was a ton of fun to chat with. It took us a while to record together as the time difference between us was a challenge. But it was worth the wait to hear all about his substack and why he started it! I’m sure you will enjoy the episode as much as I did, and make sure to let us know. The Long RunEpisode 2 with Keeley Milne was another huge success. We’re grateful Keeley came on and shared her story and we’re thrilled these episodes have been received so well. The downloads have piled up and we’re excited to keep them coming. Make sure to check out Keeley’s episode if you haven’t already:Ep. 120 The Long Run. Featuring Keeley Milne“I knew that I was going to die and that was made very clear to me by people in the hospital and by a doctor that I had seen. And I knew I had very limited time. I was having a lot of seizures. Whenever alcohol got out of my system, I would have a seizure. So I was having to drink, even though I didn't want to.”Read full storyFood Fight FridayI enjoy doing these shows with Jason Bahamundi. We have a great time being goofy together and the latest episode was no different!#Naaksquad - Try it and get 15% offI enjoy the Naak products, even if the sauces took a few tries to grow on me.

  • Ep. 121 Fit2Function. With Sarah Nurcombe

    Ep. 121 Fit2Function. With Sarah Nurcombe
    Nov 4 2024
    “There's a lot of peace in the backcountry. So you find yourself completely by yourself. You may come across lots of animal tracks. Those are some of my favorite things. It's just peaceful and it's wild.”Sarah Nurcombe coaches trail running and Nordic skiing athletes in my new neck of the woods, Crowsnest Pass. The opportunity to interview someone in person was one I could not pass up and so it was an honour to chat with Sarah at our “Bushtown” kitchen table. She’s been in The Pass for 20 years and it was great to hear a bit about why she loves it so much. She also loves coaching athletes and she’s found it very rewarding to be a positive part of someone’s journey. That’s also been the case with her group runs where she gets to see so many people flourish.“Those aha moments. They suddenly either have a breakthrough, they suddenly understand something that they'd never understood before about running. And just to see confidence build in people, like the confidence, the camaraderie, right. They often meet people that they end up running trails with. I see them later on the trails running together. So those have been super rewarding for me.”I’m so glad Sarah was able to meet in person and I look forward to hosting more people at the kitchen table in the future! I’m sure you will enjoy learning about Sarah as much as I did. Be sure to let us know!It’s the debut of “The Miller Minutes”! Coach Andrew Miller and I are working together as I get ready for Moab Run the Rocks. It’s a segment I’m really excited about as we will chat for five minutes on the first Monday of each month and give you all a glimpse of what it’s like to work with a running coach. Andrew will break down what I’m doing and why I’m doing it so we understand his thought process of building my program. It’s informative and fun and make sure to let us know what you think as we work towards Moab! These episodes will get posted individually on the Wednesday after each release.Andrew was a guest on Community Trail Running in the past and you can listen to that episode and learn more about him:The Long RunEpisode 2 with Keeley Milne was another huge success.
