Send us Fan Mail We talk with trail runner and coach Jonathan Fors about going from a non sporty childhood in northern Sweden to building a steady running habit that eventually becomes a major part of his life. We dig into what makes trail running harder than road running, and what training actually keeps you strong when terrain and fatigue start to bite. • Jonathan’s early relationship with sport and why he never felt like a natural athlete • How small, repeatable runs build distance over time • Running as routine, mindfulness and a way to cope with heartbreak • The mental clarity angle and how exercise supports focus day to day • The real differences between road running and trail running on the body • Access to trails, nature and the “no bad weather, only bad clothing” mindset • Why strength training matters for trail runners • Key focus areas like glutes, calves, core and balance • How fatigue changes form and increases injury risk, especially over long gaps between fuel and water Jonathans Website Brian's Run Pod has become interactive with the audience.
