Running Buddies featuring Nicolas Lehmann

On today's show we welcome ultra runner Nicolas Lehmann. Lehmann shares his perspective on professional athletics, describing his rigorous mountain training as a lifestyle rather than a chore. He recounts his victories in the PTL, a notoriously difficult 300-kilometer race, and explains the importance of mental fortitude and partnership during such grueling events. We cover his transition from playing rugby to trail running and his preference for solitary, technical routes over crowded mainstream races. Looking ahead, Lehmann reveals plans for a documentary focused on a high-altitude challenge at Mont Blanc. We also hype up the Mount to Coast footwear giveaway a brand with which Layman has recently partnered.
