In this episode, we’re joined by our longtime friend (and all-around awesome human) Chris Young, who just finished his very own homemade Ironman! Chris has been part of our crew and a friend of the show since the beginning, and we couldn’t be more pumped to celebrate this huge accomplishment with him. We dive into what it took to plan and pull off his solo Ironman, the mental grit involved, and what kept him going through all those miles. Plus, plenty of laughs, stories, and heart — just how we like it. You don’t want to miss this one. Chris is a legend.

Episode #121 of The Running Mullet features Brendan Morgan, who recently took on the unique challenge of running 100 miles on a track.

Episode #120 of The Running Mullet welcomes back friend of the show Bob Stewart — and this time, he’s fresh off an incredible adventure: an unsupported FKT (Fastest Known Time) of the entire Superior Hiking Trail.

Tonight we celebrate the true wild creatures of the running world: the Run Dads. Not the grill-wielding sitcom dads. No. These are the men who wake up at 3:47 AM, disappear into the woods for hours, and return in time for the Tony-worthy Middle School play. He's in short shorts and supportive of his family; he's the feral Run Dad.

We’re diving into the dirty details of Worlds End Ultra, where the trails were less "technical" and more "treacherous mudslide." It was wet, wild, and wonderfully miserable—the kind of day trail runners dream about and their laundry fears. Tune in as we recap the chaos, the carnage, and the incredible grit it took to survive those slippy, sludgy, soul-sucking miles. Grab your shoes (and maybe a snorkel), because it’s going to get messy. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

We chat strategy, aid station dreams, shoe debates, and try (and fail) to solve the eternal mystery of Pie Knob. Is it a place? Is it dessert? Is it both? No one knows. If you’re running it, crewing it, or just like listening to weirdos talk about elevation and snacks—this episode’s for you. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

Strap in (or shuffle in circles) for this one—Eric returns from a 24-hour track race and lives to tell the tale. That’s right, 24 hours. On. A. Track. Like a human hamster. We cover it all: blister math, snack logistics, what songs get stuck in your head after 100 laps, and the psychological effects of running in ovals for an entire rotation of the earth. This one’s dizzying in all the best ways—don’t miss it! 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up? Check out StreamYard and get $10 discount! 😍 https://streamyard.com/pal/d/60990603...

Erica Lubera is back on The Running Mullet, and she brought something wild with her—a brand new unsupported FKT on Pennsylvania’s Mid State Trail!

We get into the highs, the lows, maybe hallucinations, the river crossings, and why on earth someone would choose to do this alone (spoiler: she’s a badass). It’s raw, honest, and pretty freaking inspiring. Tune in! 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up? Check out StreamYard and get $10 discount! 😍 https://streamyard.com/pal/d/60990603...
