Trail Running in the Olympics, Singletrack Events Takeover, and 4 Peaks Recap | Episode 82

In Episode 82, James, Brodie, and Jess cover a massive week in Australian trail running. Jess shares her Kosci 50km training update (plus some broccoli-sprout science), Brodie dives into weighted uphill training and his return from injury, and James reflects on progress in his own recovery.
