Chasing Trail

We welcome Jake Jackson to the show to discuss ultrarunning, delivering packages, and carrying a selfie-stick on the trails. Being a social media influencer has it’s ups and downs, just like ultrarunning, and Jake is out here documenting it all, even with a crazy schedule and family obligations. He also has a lot of disgusting toe and feet content; I know you weirdos out there that like that stuff.

Rachel Tomajczyk sits down for this episode of Chasin' Trail to discuss doping in trail running. More specifically, the doping controls at the Golden Trail World Series races, and how it impacts runners of her caliber when it comes to fairness and accessibility.

With the recent doping scandal at Sierre- Zinal, which we covered on previous videos, it has come to our attention that this is truly becoming a problem in our sport. The increased amount of money has brought the cheaters out of the woodwork, and we will likely see more and more as the purses get bigger.

So, what can be done about this? Tune in to find out what Teddy and Rachel think. We also discuss Wombats, Batman, and marsupials. It's a fun episode, but it is also slightly thought provoking... but only slightly, this is Teddy Tonelli, after all. You can follow Rachel on both:

Chad Hall is an endurance athlete with a love the outdoors and pushing his physical and mental limits. As a life-long athlete from a family of athletes, Chad has an aerobic engine that is nearly unmatched. He is also a Mountain Lion at Heart. He also prefers Nutella to jelly on his PB&J sandwiches... but still likes jelly.

He is racing the Mammoth Trailfest for like, the 4th year in a row, going for the Triple Crown once again, as he prepares for his first "true" Ultra in Kodiak 100k by UTMB.

As a resident of Big Bear, California, we believe he is the odds on favorite to win the whole dang thing. But he will certain have competition, with the Forest Felon, Michelino Sunseri coming to town.

We also talk about Chad looking REALLY big, I mean good, in tights. Oh yeah, he is also a running coach, and it's hard to find a much better one.

In this episode of Teddy Talks, Teddy takes on the recent scandal of Joyline Chengeno recently being popped for doping after her win at Sierre Zinal, and later her win at UTMB OCC 2025.

Is there a doping problem in Trail Running? Is it limited to Kenya? Is Salomon part of the problem? We dive into the general questions, ones raised by many trail runners in the sport. With rumors swirling, how will we handle this recent event?

A universal, unbiased, governing body is needed before this gets out of hand... and Teddy is on the case.
