Community Trail Running

Sheena and I go to a lot of races together. She has been there and supported me over and over, and I’m always so grateful for it! So I absolutely love these resort style races where she has access to the amenities the entire time I’m on the trails playing. It’s nice to know she’s having a great time enjoying all kinds of fun as well! Panorama has lots of great things to do, and we had so much fun going back to The Wildness for their second year. We are already excited for year 3!

Celeste Ramage has made it a mission to let men know they can find support. It’s so personal to her because her partner Chad Evans suffered in silence and alone, and ultimately ended his own life tragically at the age of 34. She’s found strength and meaning in connecting with the running community and supporting Heads up Guys through “Chad’s Day for Change”, an urban trail race in Edmonton, Alberta (August 8, 2026). She was open and honest, and I’m so grateful to her for coming on the show and sharing as she did. It’s wonderful we have people like Celeste looking to make change even in the shadow of tragedy.

Well friends, this week’s guest is the best-looking guest I’ve ever had…
OK, now I’m done with the hosting myself jokes ;)
I’ve been having an absolute blast producing this show and the other shows here on the network. This journey has been so much fun. I’ve got to meet so many amazing people, and the fact that we continue to grow around here tells me the future is still just as exciting as it’s ever been. The philosophy hasn’t been very complicated; we highlight good people, and we say yes to opportunity. That’s kinda been the way I’ve moved through the world, and it shines through with CTR. Today was a great opportunity to let you know a bit more about myself, and I hope you won’t mind the format.
Did you know that less than 3.5% of podcasts make it to 200 episodes?! Thank you for the constant support and for making us one of those 3.5%!

Another year of awesome Trail Running Film Festival screenings has come and gone, and did we ever have a great time! My partner in crime, Jeannine Avelino, and the Executive Producer of the festival, Mathias Eichler, join me to wrap our season. It’s a blast chatting about what we got up to and how it all came together. I loved working with Jeannine and hearing about the film selection process, and learning about where the festival is at from Mathias was great as well. Enjoy!

Holly Grahn is passionate about helping athletes maximize their performance. The mental side of the sport is her specialty, and after she found ways to get more out of herself, she knew she wanted to do this for others as well. Leading Edge Hypnotherapy is her business, and she loves helping athletes get the most out of themselves. It was really fun to hear why she’s so passionate about it, and it was great to get some insight into how hypnotherapy works. I hope you enjoy the interview as much as I did!
