About this episode
This past year has broken from the normal and thrown some curveballs, challenges and outright disappointments to our lives inside trail running. We thought it would be a good discussion to talk about the state of The Nation, the trail running community that we all enjoy and love.
Andy Jones-Wilkins joins us to talk about some of the changes and what that may mean to our sport.
