In this episode of The Next Aid Station, Jake Kilgore and Mick Garrison dive deep into the upcoming trail running race calendar, including Squaw Peak 50, the Twisted Fork 68K (why not 69K?!), and the always-iconic Tahoe 200. They discuss who’s racing, who’s dropping, and who’s likely to crush—including their predictions for the men’s and women’s podiums. The episode also takes a powerful turn with the viral story of Stephanie Case, who breastfed her daughter mid-race on her way to winning the Snowdonia 100K. From treadmill torture tests to the controversy around course naming and elevation flexing, nothing’s off the table. Whether you’re racing Western, following the Bear 100 series, or just vibing with the Utah trail scene, this episode delivers a perfect blend of humor, insight, and raw storytelling. Oh, and Jake might podium on the women’s side of the 30K. Again.
