The U SPORTS Year That Never Was, With Courtney Hufsmith and Eric Lutz

Last year, we produced a regular podcast called The U - it was a look into Canada's varsity running scene. The podcast, much like the entire U SPORTS circuit, entered hibernation in the spring, around the time COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic. But this week, we are bringing it back. After all, had sports not been cancelled, the U SPORTS championship would be happening this weekend. Here, our guests tell host Alex Cyr how training is going, how they both overcame pretty serious injuries, and who they think would have won the U SPORTS race this year, had it taken place. Aside from the running fodder, Hufsmith talks about why she chose to embark on a 100-day social media hiatus, Lutz talks about the time he met Scottish singing superstar Lewis Capaldi, and the trio shares what they each think about American media franchise High School Musical.
