This episode of the show is brought to you by Norda, the official footwear partner of single track.

I almost never talk about their zero three model, which I need the change because I wear it daily.

It's billed as an approach shoe, but I also think it's equal parts, fashionable and comfortable for daily wear.

The upper is laceless thanks to an elasticized biodynamic material that rests super nicely on top of the foot.

It's winter here right now in Salt Lake.

So if you're out walking around town and it's icy or you're out on trails for a walk or

whatever, it's got 5mm lugs for great traction.

So yeah, go check these out at norder run.com.

They're pretty sweet.

This is another episode of the Long run archives. I am joined by

friends, colleagues, Brett Hornig, Mike McMonigle. This particular episode, it might go all over

the place, but the goal is to provide somewhat instant reactions to the ultra runner of the

year and trail runner of the year top 10 votes that just closed up earlier this week
