About this episode
Why does ultrarunning in Europe feel so different—bigger, louder, more celebrated—than it does in the U.S.? In this episode of The Next Aid Station , we dive into the cultural, geographic, and historical forces that have shaped trail running on both sides of the Atlantic. From the spectacle of UTMB to the grassroots grit of American 100-milers, we explore what’s holding U.S. ultrarunning back from matching the scale, fandom, and mystique of the European scene. Whether you're chasing vert, chasing glory, or just chasing the next aid station, this one's for you.
