Exclusive interview with Sam Heward from ULTRA X about buying up the Dragons Back and Northern Traverse!
Sam firstly tells the story of UX and how they came into the fortunate situation to be able to save the two iconic races. He talks about UX 7 year journey to put on world class multi-day events all over the world and how their experience put them in the position to take on DB and NT.
In this episode I lean heavily on the Home Trails WhatsApp community to set me ups with the questions that YOU the trail running community want answered...
Will the races be changed beyond recognition?
Will the races be more expensive?
Will the iconic routes change?
Most importantly.......will the food still be the same?
All this and more is answered in this episode. Hopefully we managed to cover all bases, so give it a listen and share with your community.
