Good chilled listen, thanks. Would love to hear Jim on something like Watts Occurring (other podcasts are available) or getting the opportunity to exchange experiences and philosophy with some grand tour riders.
To be honest there are very few runners who have any charisma. Running is growing, but I think it would get much more attention if some of our best runners had some personality.
He’s in the zone on race week. Doesn’t want to give anything away. Doesn’t want to think about the competition. I just see a focused athlete who is nice enough to do media on race week.
Good interview. Great guy who I like more and more as he ages. Having watched decades of tennis, it makes me think of the past generation of tennis greats who were not compensated fairly. I hope this superb sport of ultra trail evolves in financial terms so that elite athletes are rewarded highly for their relatively short careers. 😊💰😎☀
