Welcome back or welcome to the Single Track podcast.

I'm your host Finn Melanson and in this episode we talk with Drew Holman,

a professional trail runner for Nike based in Boulder, Colorado,

Before we get started though, this episode of Single track is brought to you by SOAR running.

Soar Running, that's SOAR running, are a London-based high-performance running apparel brand.

Why am I excited to partner with SOAR?

Well, if you're like me, you take pride in your running gear, then you want the best.

That's why I'm stoked about this brand.

They are pushing the

running apparel boundaries when it comes to producing gear that we care about like wet and

cold weather layers and racing kits. I'm also excited because they are finally moving into the

trail running space. After years in the figurative lab, they have launched a trail-specific clothing

line that I've had a chance to test. Specifically,

their half-zip t-shirts, trail race vests, and trail shorts, all out on multi-hour runs in my

backyard of the Wasatch Range. This apparel is the real deal. If you want help getting

kitted out for your training and racing needs, SOAR is offering us an exclusive 20% savings at soar running.com.
