Episode Notes
Episode 8 of the Trail Mix Running Podcast is here.
Nick and Steven kick things off by talking about how their 2026 is shaping up, interesting gear choices from the Black Canyon 100K, records falling at the Jackpot 100, and how much longer Zach Bitter’s 100-mile record might stand. They also cover octogenarian speedster Gary Patton, chaos in Atlanta at the Women’s USATF Half Marathon Championship, and whether spring is actually here to stay (sorry, East Coasters).
Then they’re joined by Mathias Eichler, Executive Director of the Trail Running Film Festival, to talk about the festival’s past and future, how he sees TRFF shaping the running zeitgeist, what makes a great running film, the tradeoffs of corporate backing in creative work, and whether a zombie film has ever been submitted.
If you’re enjoying the show, toss us a five-star rating after you finish the episode.
