In this episode I speak to US ultra running legend Max King.

Max recently popped over from the USA to win the legendary Dragons Back Race. A 380KM stage race over 6 days traversing the length of Wales from Conwy in the north, to Cardiff in the south!

In this interview we chat about his experience of the iconic British stage race, that tests even the hardest ultra runners. We talk about his nonexistent recces of the course and how everyday was for him, fortunately a nice surprise.
We discuss his previous experience of UK trail running and how his love of the British fell running scene keeps him coming back for more!

Max is a great runner and it was an insightful interview that dealt with some of the minutiae of running in what has fast become a legendary race on the UK ultra scene.

Josh returns as a guest to the podcast with an outstanding performance at this years UTMB.

Josh ran himself into a final position of 11th, making him the highest placing Brit at this years race!

When you hear how his race started out, the more you realise what a great result he had on a day that could have ended as a DNF, like it did for so many others at this years race.

As always, we talk about his training leading into this years race. We talk about his reflections on the result and what he has lined up for the rest of the year.

Josh is a genuinely funny guy too, so its always a pleasure to talk to him.

For the super nerds that wanted to hear the first edit before it was cut down for visual aesthetic reasons!

An extra 7 minutes of training talk that was removed from the video version after this version. So it's essentially the same but with some additional insights into his training and prep.
More conducive to listening in the podcast format.
