Episode Notes
This episode is part of Freetrail's annual Trail Runner of the Year Rollout -- an opportunity to reflect on the 2025 season and celebrate the athletes who performed the best according to the global trail running community. In 2025, we're proud to partner with All Conditions Gear to bring the awards to life.
Today we welcome the #5 Trail Runners of the Year, Tom Evans and Nina Engelhard. Tom enjoyed a perfect, undefeated season including winning the 2025 UTMB. Nina might be the biggest breakout star in the sport, winning double Gold Medals in both the Vertical and the Classic disciplines at the Trail and Mountain Running World Championships in September.
