Talk Ultra

Some excellent guests and enjoy Karl’s input when he can get a word in. Would prefer less info on Ian’s itinerary and more from the runners themselves. Wouldn’t mind mixing up the elite perspective with a few interviews directed towards normal runners to have a few takeaways to improve our own running / training but that might dilute his podcast / photography business model. Overall Ian is a warm and chatty host and obviously thoroughly enjoys attending, relaying, analysing elite ultra events.

This used to be a good show but over the years, Ian has become self righteous and out of touch. Other podcasts serve the trail and ultra community far better now. It feels like a verbal diary at times which is dull as hell.

Really enjoyed the recent MdS episode, great questions and good insight into a big change in the community. After listening I am excited to attend MdS in the future again. Thanks Ian

Yes it’s about running but it’s far too serious! It’s only running! I’m an ultra runner and yes I take it really seriously but gosh it’s about having fun on the way. The last thing we want is a podcast taking themselves way too seriously!
