Backyard Ultra Hype & Dudes Entering Women's Sports

This week on The Next Aid Station, Jake and Mick get into some of the biggest conversations happening in running right now. They debate eligibility in women’s sports, discuss the news of a provisional suspension involving marathoner Peres Jepchirchir and what drug testing could look like in ultrarunning, and wonder what it takes to bring the world’s best trail runners to races overseas.
Plus, the Moab 240’s unusual post-cancellation buckles, the rapid growth of backyard ultras, and whether the guys should organize a backyard race of their own. As always, there are strong opinions, plenty of tangents, and a lot to talk about.
