We were on site in Leadville, Colorado for the fourth annual Equinox 24hr Ultra Ski and spoke with winner Tayte Pullman as well as runner-up John Henry Paluszek. The pair duked it out for about 200k before Pullman pulled away. We also talked with a 16-year old high school junior who went over 100k and the founder of the event, Dan Batwinas and his son Jacob, who stayed up all night on his birthday to count laps.

We'll have Falun World Cup coverage/recap/discussion coming later in the week.

Ryan Sederquist dissects last weekend's first ever women's 50k at Holmenkollen, including his thoughts Jessie Diggins' performance, FIS scheduling issues, and the equal distance issue as a whole. Then we get into some Drammen drama (actually, there was not much drama) and plug an interesting 24-hour race opportunity in our own backyard. 

Enjoy!

We talk about the 30k and 50k, how we would cover the 2025 Worlds if we could have boots on the ground, pole-gate, David Norris, Klaebo, and so much more......

We discuss Jessie Diggins' epic gold and remind people it's weird to post creepy messages on Facebook... 

Plus, we shipped Ajee to Planica to grab some post-race quotes and he may have bit a reporter in the mixed zone....live...on Shovel Lake Public Radio (listen to the end). 

Both relays and individual starts are discussed and once again, we fill an hour with some takes only members of gripwax nation can interpret....

Stop what you're doing right now and listen!!

The man, the myth, the legend, and 48 hours post Birkie title, David Norris hops on our show to talk about what it means to go from quasi-retired and coaching Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club athletes to earning a spot on the World Championship team. Norris will be racing the 50k in Planica and we caught him en route to Slovenia for a quick phone call. 

Plus, winners and losers halfway through worlds and some predictions for tomorrow's 10k....

We talk about the salient features from Day 3 of the World Champs, which featured Team USA getting its first medal of the week. Plus, we forgot to touch on some stuff from the skiathlon, including how we were the only ones who praised Rosie Brennan's incredible grit in finishing out the race after a big fall. 

All that and more!

All kinds of hot takes here.... Klaebo a major disappointment? Yes. Choke in fact. Novi Sederquist running the mic? You bet. Discussing the girls race? A little, but not enough....we totally forgot to chat about Ebba but I'm confident I'll get another chance to talk about the Swedish superstar....

Stick around to hear from Rosie and Sydney as well!

Thank you for joining us! Tell you friends and subscribe!

Novi opens the show and we give our predictions, followed by quick reactions from Day 1 of the World Champs. 

Coming at you at 100 mph....

Plus, at the end, we discuss some new waxes that haven't hit the market yet but could revolutionize your training and racing.

Well, we won't be announcing worlds, but that's ok....also...

*Ben Ogden had more podcast appearances last week than I had bowls of oatmeal, which is saying something. But....what's the podcast he listens to? (Also, tune back and listen to our 2020 interview with Ogden, one of my all-time favorite shows!)...

*Our thoughts on Les Rousses (yes, it's still worth talking about)....

*How much should a citizens race cost anyway? (and, shoot us an email if you have a fun, well-run race we should check out next year)

*Random rambling and long-winded dissertations about nonsensical foolishness

*Bonus interviews: stick around for the last few minutes to hear from Sophia Laukli, Novie McCabe and Will Koch....

Jacob Huseby has been in the wax trucks of the major nations on this year's world cup and he's here to spill every secret. Plus, is Peltonen poised for a comeback? If you're like me, those two elements will keep you listening the entire show....if not...well, why are you searching for Nordic ski specific podcasts on Apple/Spotify/Google to begin with!!!

Enjoy the show and head on over to enjoywinter.com to check out all their sweet gloves, glasses, wax and much more!
