AFB and Evil Becky Burke are back at it, serving up a full platter of ultra goodness from Vermont to Rhode Island, with detours through the Catskills, Soapstone, Notchview, and the Squatchy Surprise in NJ. We’re breaking down the highs, lows, and bug bites from recent races, plus dishing on who crushed it, who gutted it out, and who set new course records. 

Art wrestles with “The Yips” on technical trails, Evil Becky relives her sandy Ocean State Ultra dropout at mile 50, and we both agree-some courses need to rethink their “short loop at the end” strategy.

We tip our trucker hats to our Patreon trail legends. There’s also talk of Escarpment ambitions, a potential Badger 100 return, awning insurance, and Evil Becky’s upcoming birthday week.

Episode Highlights:

• Vermont 100, Escarpment Trail Run, Catskills 30K
• Squatchy Surprise magic & Soapstone Assault grit
• Ocean State Ultra: dunes, shuttles, and sand in bad places
• Notchview highs, lows, and shoe swap disasters
• Bug-proof hats that actually work
