#184 - Eli Hemming, Professional Trail Runner

from Stupid Questions with Seth Hill · host Seth Hill

Former draft-legal triathlete turned Adidas Terrex trail runner Eli Hemming joins me from Europe ahead of World Champs to talk swapping Olympic cycles for alpine miles, racing UTMB week (CCC), and why 2025 will be “Taber & Eli doing Taber & Eli.” We get into belief-driven training (and racing more because it’s fun), social-media detox and attention-span rehab, growing up homeschooled in eastern Colorado, coffee nerdery (yes, the caffeine-molecule tattoo), pacing JFK 50 while learning not to quit, and building a simple life in Kremmling near his wife’s family ranch. We also wander into head vs. heart decision-making and the scary honesty of “nothingness” after death—and why that makes the present matter more.Eli’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/eli_hemming/SQ Socks: ⁠https://stupidquestions.show/pages/sq-merch⁠ SQ Newsletter: ⁠https://stupidquestions.show/pages/newsletter-signup⁠
