*Episode 28: Karl Meltzer, The Speedgoat, becomes a RUNEGADE*

We are witnessing some truly remarkable trail and ultrarunning performances. But, can anyone tell us what it really felt like in the golden age of trail running - imagine no Google, you learned by trail and error, watching others.

Karl Meltzer, The Speedgoat, the World's Winningest 100-mile Ultrarunner, shares with you his advice on how to be a better trail runner:

(1) Don't take it so seriously
(2) Science is great, but so is the experience
(3) Run for the love, hang with your friends - not for the money
(4) Be fast, get fast at the shorter distances
(5) It's all bullcrap - just run
(6) Quit complaining
