Jeff is a trail runner and film maker from Canada and this episode we dive into a few of the key races he’s done, including the Moab 240, the UTMB and the Bob Graham round, which sits in a category of its own.
Jeff also talks about how and why he is able to push through these massive distances, his journey as a creator and provides a lot of tangible advice if you’re wanting to get into trail running or storytelling.
I appreciate you tuning into the podcast and any support you can show helps me continue getting these awesome guests on.
I hope you enjoy the episode, and remember, you make you
