Get ready for a hilarious and insightful deep dive into the world of international trail running with Gary, Ben, and special guest Tom! In this episode, we tackle everything from packing nightmares and airport security mishaps to navigating challenging terrain and overcoming cultural barriers.


Join us as we share our own running misadventures, offer practical advice for planning and executing a trail run abroad, and discuss essential gear, hydration strategies, and the importance of mental preparation. Tom, who is preparing for a challenging trail race in Gran Canaria, shares his anxieties and seeks guidance from Gary and Ben. We delve into the challenges of traveling with running gear, the importance of proper nutrition and hydration, and the mental fortitude required to conquer demanding trails.


We also discuss the importance of pacing, the "don't blast off the hill" philosophy, and the unique challenges of running in different climates and terrains.
