IAU Trail World Championships Preview w Krissy Moehl and Alex Varner

Slipping on a racing singlet with USA emblazoned across the front is a big deal, and this weekend, eight MUT runners from this country will toe the line at the 85km IAU Trail World Championships in Annecy, France. I chatted with two of our best – Krissy Moehl and Alex Varner – while they were en route to France to find out what they’re expecting from this super technical and monstrously vertical course. In this podcast we also discuss: * What specific workouts Alex is doing to prepare for this. * What shoe sponsor Krissy is working with. * How Alex plans on recuperating between now and Western States. * What Krissy thinks of the team makeup. * How freakin’ fast Alex ran a 12k while strapped to 12 other dudes. * Krissy’s new book she’s finishing up this month! Episode Notes: Here’s the race website. You can also follow the race here. Here are IRF’s previews for the ladies and the gentlemen. Here’s Krissy’s website.
