“Exceptional advice and knowledge from Jason. Ran a few ultras but never really had a proper training plan. The podcast is fantastic alongside the book Training Essentials for Ultrarunning by Jason Koops. Cannot recommend them both enough.
Many thanks Jason”

“Honestly, the info is top notch, read his book and listened to the podcast for a long time. However, the method of delivery and the unneeded hostility towards anyone that does different from him (endorsements) gets in the way of what is extremely helpful information. Unfortunately the greatest...”Read full review »

“I used to cherry pick some of these episodes and learned some things, however take a listen to episode 161 (2023 preview) before you get too far into this guy’s ecosystem. He aggressively targets other well known coaches and podcasts by name and is quite nasty towards them. One of the things I...”Read full review »

“Great podcast with the science of ultra running clearly described in layman terms. This is the place to get the hype about supplements and modalities debunked or promoted based on scientific research in a commercial free discussion with top scientists in the fields.”

“Interesting guests. It seems like the host wants to move between technical/scientific language and ‘layperson’ language. If so, I respect the intent, but in the process he makes offensive assumptions about the listener, the running community at large. He also makes more accurate assumptions, but...”Read full review »

“Used to enjoy this pod. It’s one thing to be critical and have hot takes but to call someone out in such a condescending way and not offer any feedback is just bad form. Frankly I got major narcissist vibes from all of episode 161 and it was gross. Not what this community needs.”
