World Champs Reflections, Kunanyi 66km Plans & the UTMB Carbon Debate continues feat. SJ Miller | Episode 93

In episode 93 of Peak Pursuits, Jess and James sit down with Australian World Champs representative SJ to unpack a big few months on and off the trails. SJ reflects on her Short Trail performance at the World Mountain and Trail Running Championships, a tough post-race illness, and a confidence-boosting win at Bogong to Hotham last weekend. The conversation then turns to 2026 planning, with a shift toward longer racing and a bold entry into the Kunanyi 66km. Jess and James also share candid updates on their own training returns, before diving deep into one of the biggest global talking points in trail running: UTMB’s new carbon offset policy and its impact on Australian athletes. Packed with athlete insight, race results, and informed debate, this episode cuts to the heart of where trail running in Australia is heading.Results: Bogong 2 Hotham***Don’t forget, use code PEAK at https://bix-hydration.myshopify.com/en-au for 20% off Bix products, exclusive to PPP listeners!***Thanks for tuning in to Peak Pursuits!Connect with us on Instagram @peakpursuits.pod to share your thoughts, questions, and your own trail stories.
