AUTRA President Gary Mullins and Vice President Geoff Russell have stepped down — and it’s sparked a lot of questions across the trail community.

In this episode, Gary and Geoff share what led to the decision, the internal challenges they faced, and why athlete advocacy, selection, and governance direction became major pressure points.

We also look ahead to what the AGM means, what they hope happens next, and what needs to change to keep Australian trail running moving forward.

If you care about the future of trail running in Australia, this one’s worth a listen — and if it helps, share it with a mate who’s been following the story.
