Ten Junk Miles
A lighthearted conversation by runners about their lives as runners and the issues that are interesting or important to them and guests of the show. TJM is meant to be a companion to you as you run. Think of us as your running partners on days when you just need some friends to get you out on an easy run. The show is composed of 10 segments, one for each mile, and every 10 minutes or so we move on to the next topic, to keep things interesting. Among the hosts' experience are ten 100-mile finishes, dozens of half and full marathons, plenty of 50-milers, and some speedy 5ks and a BQ (and a handful of DNFs). Your host, Scotty Kummer is an attorney, doberman owner and quite possibly the most painstakingly average runner known to man. Scott has stumbled through numerous plus 4 and 5 hour marathons. He's DNF'ed the 150 mile, 100 mile, 50 mile and marathon distance. Okay, and he is a member of the Order of the Hrimthurs for having completed the Arrowhead 135, the Tuscobia 160 and the Actif Epica 120K in the same calendar year (more people have walked on the moon) as well as finshed 50+ ultramarathons including several 100 mile races. He was once kicked out of an ultra runing group due to allegations of cyber-bullying. He has a habit of offending people by accident while trying to help them. He is a co-founder of the Flatlander Ultrarunners in Chicagoland which has rapidly grown to over 2000 members. He came up with the idea for Ten Junk Miles after becoming frustrated with hearing interview after interview of Scott Jurek and deciding that runners needed more: more discussions of bathroom breaks that went wrong, pacer stories from hell, DNF reports, stories of getting lost on the trail and other related matters.

This podcast (and racing company) has been like a second family to me. I started listening and was invited out to the races. I made friends instantly and enjoyed listening to them on the podcast. Gang shows for entertainment, MTN to get to know people before even meeting them (in some cases) and inspiring stories on the long run. In addition, this podcast, its listenership and runners have all been instrumental in helping build a business inside the trail ultra world. Scott, specifically, has never asked for anything I return. I am truly grateful for the community built. Jason C. Venckus, known more commonly as REGAIN

I am new to the podcast and my first episode was Emily’s interview. I have to admit to experiencing a variety of emotions while listening-tears,laughter sadness and joy. Listening to you two speak about your moms made me wish my own mom had been able to see me run just one race before she passed. I started running in my late 30’a as a way to cope with the stress of a dysfunctional marriage. My family probably thought it was a phase- but here I am 20+ years later and still running ! (Without the marriage) I also appreciated when you both said losing your pet was almost as bad as losing your parent. I felt the same way but never wanted to speak that. ❤️ I look forward to listening to more episodes on my long runs as well as purchasing Emily’s book.
Great show!
