Trail TMZ, Why we need it!
from Free Outside · host Jeff Garmire
In this episode, I dive into the recent controversy surrounding the Arizona Monster trail race, where a failed live stream led to a very public clash between the race director and the live stream operator. I break down what happened, explore how social media amplified the drama, and share some thoughts on how these kinds of disputes can be handled more constructively. Along the way, I also talk about what I’ve been learning in my recent training camp and reflect on the importance of keeping conflict resolution behind the scenes whenever possible—for the good of the sport and the people involved.Support our sponsors:-www.janji.com-www.garagegrowngear.com-https://www.csinstant.coffee/Sound Bites"We sprain news, we don't break it.""This is going to be a tricky subject.""Stay elite, my friends."Chapters00:00 The Arizona Monster Controversy04:37 Social Media Warfare in Trail Running09:22 Escalation of the Dispute11:43 Lessons Learned from the Drama12:32 Upcoming Events and Personal UpdatesKeywordsArizona Monster, trail running, social media, live stream, controversy, public disputes, race director, live streaming, community, drama
