Community Trail Running

Craig Lewis and his wife Michelle, are the folks behind Running Tales. The UK-based publication loves to tell the extraordinary story behind everyday runners. Craig is a passionate person who loves learning more about the people running around him and sharing those stories through their podcast and written articles. It was awesome hearing how Craig and I have very similar stories in a lot of ways, and I’m excited to share our chat today!
Craig had me on his show a little while back which was a lot of fun for me:

Jeff and Warren Dudar are the race directors behind Prairie Sky Running. The brothers started Prairie Sky Running with Beaver Flats 50 (registration opened this morning at 7am for the 10th anniversary!), and now have a second race, Reesor 50. They love the sport and getting people together, and they do so in a lighthearted manner. The races are tough and fun. They look to make memorable experiences and I really enjoyed hearing about how they get there!
They are also passionate about growing the sport. They started Prairie Harriers to help youth get into the sport. Prairie Harriers is a cause near and dear to them and it was really awesome to hear the impact they are having on Saskatchewan trail running!

It’s back! I’m so excited to be working with Andrew Miller on Fat Dog 120. He’s a great coach to run with, and I’ll be leaning heavily on him to prepare for August 7!

Fat Dog 120 is set for August 7-9 in Manning Park, BC, and it will be my first crack at this distance!
I’m terrified and excited. A great spot to be.
Erik Bird is the Race Director, and his journey to directing this race is a fun one to hear. His passion for the sport and the area drives him, and the race offers a remote and breathtaking ultra-challenge. Erik is proud of all the work Fat Dog does on the area trails, and it’s gonna be amazing getting to explore them. I can’t wait to run it and I am so excited to share this chat!

I am so excited to run towards a 100-mile finish in 2026! I am even more excited to be working with Team Run Run coach Andrew Miller once again to do so! He and I worked together while I trained for Moab Run the Rocks this past year, and so I’m really grateful Andrew wants to work with me some more towards my biggest goal ever. Andrew is also running 100-mile races this year, for the first time in a while, so I’m pumped we’re going to be going through similar journies at the same time. We invite you along with us and hope you will find it educational. We received a lot of great feedback from Moab, so I think this 100-mile training story will be a popular one as well!
