Gary and Ben unpack this year’s Montane Winter Spine Race, the brutal winter conditions, unforgettable runner stories, and why neither of them would ever sign up. From exposed bones and 100-hour finishes on barely any sleep, to dot watching obsession and media crews living the race alongside the runners. There’s also chat about the National Running Show, ASICS, SportsShoes’ new women’s pro race team, the Elsey Davis Circuit of Cornwall film, UTMB documentary news, and what the future holds for the Spine. Honest opinions, dark humour, and a lot of respect for anyone mad enough to take it on.
