First and foremost, we want you to know how much you and the entire URG community means to us. One of the best things about ultra running is the people, and this particular community is second to none. And we mean that. So, Thank you!
With that said, there are some big changes coming for The Ultra Running Guys and if you have been around the world of ultra for any time at all, you are well aware that navigating change is part of the game.
And while we can't predict the future, we have made the difficult decision to indefinitely pause both The Ultra Running Guys Podcast as well as the two races that we host, The Hydra and The Final Countdown (following the upcoming running of The Final Countdown on September 14th of course!). The current plan is for our final episode to be released on October 5th.
We know you are wondering...why?! Well, Jeremy has made the personal decision to step away from the Podcast to shift focus to a recently launched business with his wife (and son). Jeff plans to continue investing in his coaching for ultrarunners and is exploring the possibility of launching a new podcast but says the name “The Ultra Running Guy” just doesn’t make sense. :).
Both of us still have a lot to work through and we are trying to adjust to the implications of such a big decision. So if we seem like we don't have it all figured out, we don't. But, as we all know, ultra is a game of problem solving, so that is what we will do!
What we do know is that the last 4 years have been some of the best of our lives. The doors that the Podcast has opened and the connections made at races have literally been life changing.
Lastly, we are not dead. :) We are still Jeff and Jeremy, we still can't wait to run into you at a race or connect with you on social media (yes our accounts will still be there!), and we are still rooting for you to Take Your Next Step in ultra running.
So continue to inspire each other, welcome all those newcomers to the sport, and remember, when in doubt, . We appreciate you all more than you know!
