The Trail To Western States Starts On The Road- Adrian MacDonald. Dirt Church Radio 315

from Dirt Church Radio Trail Running · host Matt Rayment

Kia ora e te whānau. When Adrian MacDonald moved to Fort Collins, Colorado, he didn’t do it for the trails, he did it for love and the chance to run hills at altitude. With a background in road and track, MacDonald didn’t hit the trails until the pandemic canceled races and he thought he’d try his hand at an FKT. The rest, as they say, is history. Andrew and Matt speak to Adrian about his back-to-back wins at the historic Leadville 100, what it took to get him there, his road, er, trail to Western States, and just how much of a nuisance Sam Harvey is to race the 100-mile distance *Spoiler Alert* exactly how much you’d think he is.  Dirt Church Radio - Best Enjoyed RunningAdrian MacDonald home Adrian MacDonald Instagram OnCorosCarbs Fuel Leadville 100 Tarawera Ultra Trail By UTMB Sign up to the DCR AidStation newsletterDirt Church Merch!The Squadrun 4-Week Training Trial for DCR Listeners!Dirt Church Radio on InstagramDirt Church Radio on Facebook Further Faster New ZealandEnjoy!Music by Andrew McDowall, Digicake
