Welcome to Episode 54 of Peak Pursuits, your ultimate podcast for everything trail running in Australia. This episode is hosted by Sim Brick and Vlad Ixel in the days leading up to Sim’s first SkyRace of the season in Malaysia!

Hear about a missed result last week by Olympic Triathlete Sophie Linn, Vlads recovery from Five Peaks, and Sim’s taper, travel and course check for Penang SkyRace! Vlad and Sim then briefly discuss the field for this weekend's race with three Aussies in the running for top spots.

Our listener question this week is a follow on from last week asking for more detail on how we fuel the many hours of training and how much to take in during runs. We deep dive into our own days of food and give some of what we have found works for us.

Lastly we preview the big week of racing coming up, including GTWS, SkyRunning, and our very own Mikey Dimuantes going for a golden ticket to Western States in Canyons Endurance Runs - make sure you follow along!
