Hello and Welcome to the TrailManners Podcast we will talk Trail, ultra and mountain running.
Well "Howdy!" and thanks for stopping by.
TrailManners is unbelievably grateful for everyone who has supported, listened and hopefully enjoyed our over 320+ podcast episodes since November of 2015. You are all amazing and TrailManners feels very fortunate that you have helped us along the journey as well as supporting us on our comeback.
Over the years we have learned that TrailManners is bigger than any one or two people - it is more about the community and that you - the listeners have made it what it is today. We really do want to see it grow and flourish…..plus we want to get out more to meet you.
So why are we Coming Back?
Plain and simple - we miss it. There are other factors you will hear about on the podcast but at the end of the day - we miss the stories, we miss the people and we miss the POSITIVE COMMUNITY. Our sport has grown so much and we want to be here to shed light on the good things, good people and good times. We want to capture the moments: the possibility that everyday has the potential to be the best day of our life.
For 2024, there will be some obvious changes as well as some very subtle ones. TrailManners is looking to add much more content through video podcasts, our YouTube channel, social media, setting up at trail races and of course our audio podcasts.
Don’t worry though - even with a few changes (upgrades really) we also to promise to always bring our passion and love for the trails as well as a healthy appetite for cheese curds and a solid IPA.
Following something you are passionate about, stepping out of your comfort zone and the risks can be a bit scary but as we say here at TrailManners- “Now Go Get It!” or is it Taper Up”? Maybe a little of both?
As many of you know, this is truly a labor of love. It does require many hours of work, planning, scheduling, mixing and researching not to mention the equipment and web and media hosting costs. This is where TrailManners can really use your help.
The Big Ask
If you are so inclined, TrailManners would really appreciate any contribution and also by sharing with your friends and groups. The content and downloads may be free, it is not free to us.
Whether you want to help out personally, as a business or maybe an organization - there are a number of different options for you to support TrailManners. Review the different levels and decide what level is best for you.
No matter how large or small your contribution, it really does make a difference. No really it does…really….for real.
Thank you so much for your support.
And again - thank you for being part of this incredible journey and the TrailManners Community! Don’t forget to share us with your friends and never hesitate to reach out.
