Becoming a Pro, Taming Dragons, & New England Gnar

The Trailhead

About this episode

This week, Corrine and Buzz talk about what it takes to become a sponsored athlete—is it really just follower count?

Corrine interviews Jenn Hughes, former editor-in-chief of UltraSignup News about her experience facing dragons and searching for joy during the blizzard year of Tor des Géants. You can read Jenn's article "How to Tame a Dragon" at UltraSignup News.

Then, Buzz interviews Ultimate Direction ultrarunner Jeff Colt, about the difference between New England trails and Colorado trails, seeking balance, and how the pandemic actually helped him get to where he is today.
