Setbacks, Comebacks, Taper Chat, and GPT Recap | Episode 83

In this episode of Peak Pursuits, James, Brodie, and Simone reconnect for a big week in trail running.

Simone opens up about her ongoing recovery journey and navigating life with POTS, Brodie breaks down his strong return to racing at Triple Tops and what’s next at GSER, and James shares his cautious but optimistic first steps back from a stress fracture.

The trio dive deep into what smart tapering really looks like for trail and ultra runners — from elite examples to personal lessons — before wrapping up with race results from GPT, Feral Pig, and Triple Tops.
