    #100 Mercedes Siegle-Gaither

    For our 100th Episode I had the pleasure of chatting to the super talented Mercedes Siegle-Gaither. We're clearly on full Arc of Attrition mode now as we're just 48 hours away from the start of the 100 race and it was so much fun hearing about her prep and chatting too about the race, her entry into the sport and the comparisons between north American and European trails and where the differences are. We talk about her race at UTS and how she and her kit handled the jagged Eryri peaks and blistering heat during the race. And we cover burning topics such as who makes the best danish pastries and whether poles are a good idea and how pole etiquette should be mandatory training. Find out more about Mercedes on her IG feed - @theslimcede Thanks again to all of you for listening.

    #99 Sabrina Stanley

    Sabrina Stanley joins me on this episode as we look towards her upcoming participation in the 2026 Arc of Attrition by UTMB. For Sabrina the podium and quite often first place came regularly from 2016 onwards. A 4th place finish in Leadville was quickly followed by a 3rd place in States in 2017, followed by taking the win at Hardrock the year. After the race world emerged from the pandemic she went onto take another win on her return to Hardrock in 2021. From thereon European races including a 2nd at UTS 100M became regular occurrences in her race calendar and two top ten finishes, 9th and then 7th at UTMB came in '23 and '24 respectively. In the midst of preparing for her return to Chamonix to improve that position further came a cancer diagnosis. After multiple surgeries including a hysterectomy she emerged stronger and closed out her 'worst and best' year by marrying Tim! Now in recovery, and with her most recent treatment only months ago she's getting back on the horse with her first race, the 100 mile Arc. We also chat about her sponsorship as an OnlyFans Athlete and how they supported her with their innovative approach to sponsorship and the freedoms that affords her. I think this runners positive mental attitude will truly astound you and I think she's got her best running still ahead of her. I really hope you enjoy this episode!

    Ep. 98 Jamie Stephenson We're delighted to welcome Jamie back to the podcast. Well known throughout the Cornish trail running community, Jamie has returned to his home county after a couple of years enjoying the mountain trails of Portugal and after smashing his previous outing on the old Arc 50 and setting many records on the race scene he's now taking on his first 100 miler in the shape of... the Arc of Attrition by UTMB. As the current champion of the Arc, for a few days more at least, Lewis has a unique perspective to what it takes to top the podium on the new format being the first to win the mens race since the it joined the UTMB World Series in 2025. We chat about the upcoming race and cover tactics, course changes, and of course kit. With less than a week to go, the start line looms large now and we find out what goes through the minds of those standing behind the tape at the front of the pack.

    Ep. 97 Charlotte Fisher Charlotte joins me to talk about her explosion onto the race scene with podium after podium over the past few years. With the Arc of Attrition by UTMB 100 her next race it was an ideal time to chat and find out more about her running journey and winning her first EVER race which just happened to be a 100km trail race! We dive into the tough lessons and successes, the races that have gone to plan and what it takes to grind out a finish when the wheels have fallen off. Expectation of success is a pressure that can be generated both externally and internally and imposter syndrome is a common trait among many runners at the sharp end and Charlotte talks about this and the steps she's taken to build resilience in this area going forward Every now and again you can say you've seen the future and after chatting with Charlotte on this episode I'm 100% sure we'll be seeing a lot more from this runner over the coming years.

    #96 Arc of Attrition 2026

    Ep. 96 Arc of Attrition 2026 We're delighted to chat to Ferg and Jane about the upcoming Arc of Attrition and get under the hood on changes to this edition of the race.  With 4 race distances over the 3 days there's a lot to manage and of course as always with this race the weather in the depths of a Cornish winter will play a huge part in the success of failure of the participants. With Lewis topping the podium previously on the Arc 50 and Arc 100 he's taking on the Arc 25 this year and we get the lowdown on the course changes and changes to the race starts, finishes and updates on the improved race village logistics.  Everything points to a another fantastic event this January and with less than 2 months to that first start at Coverack, both the runners and race organisers are watching the clock tick down as they work frantically to prepare for another Arc of Attrition by UTMB!  Thanks again to all of you for listening.

    #95 James Elson

    Ep. 95 James Elson For anyone in the UK endurance scene this man shouldn't really need an introduction. He's quite possibly one of the most influential figures of trail running in the UK over the last decade.  James is the RD and founder of Centurion Running, host of the British Ultra Running Podcast and is a member of the ‘Mountain and Trail’ strategy group at UK Athletics.  We chat about talent spotting, TDG and much, much more in this episode.  Thanks again to all of you for listening.

    #94 David Parrish - Winner DBR 2025

    Ep. 94 David Parrish DBR What a pleasure to welcome back David to chat about winning the 2025 Dragons Back Race.  This brute of a race covers almost 240 miles of gnarly mountain terrains and to finish you must run the equivalent of sea level to the summit of Everest TWICE in 6 days.  What went well? What didn't?  There were navigation issues, a time penalty and changes to the route to contend with but ultimately an overall podium win.  Hear more in this episode of Trail and Error. If you like more Dragons Back content check out our back catalogue which includes day to day recordings from the 2023 event.  Thanks again to all of you for listening.

    Ep. 93 Holly Wootten  Holly joins me and new co-host Lewis Ryan to talk about her upcoming return to Dragons Back and her previous appearance in the scorching heat of 2023 which served as a (very long) recce run for a more competitive attempt in 2025.  We talk about her entry into the sport and how she was the runner her crew were searching for, which makes more sense when you hear the story!  Now a member of the Altra running team, we discuss how that relationship works for her and how it came about. Of course we also hear about her shoe choices for the upcoming Dragons Back Race and dip into some potential race strategies she may employ. And we chat about how she suffered by running herself to physical destruction at OCC, the plan to take revenge in 2026, and the all important 'lessons learned'.  Thanks again to all of you for listening.
