Simon James is the founder of Run the Wild, who are on a mission to get people "exploring places, not running races".

In this episode we talk about Run the Wild and the various trail running events they run. We compare trail running with road running. Look at how running poles can help you perform better on the trails. Simon shares some of his great running experiences, including Ultra Trail Mont Blanc (UTMB) and Marathon des Sables.
