Notes from Big Trails

Rob Savin

Booking Overview

This is an interview-led outdoor adventure podcast focused on long-distance trails, ultrarunning, fast-packing, solo challenges, and the personal stories behind major endurance efforts. Agencies could credibly pitch accomplished ultrarunners, long-distance hikers, expeditioners, fastest-known-time challengers, and advocates whose outdoor experiences connect with resilience or mental health; booking difficulty is low because guests are typically rising or accessible specialists rather than major celebrities.
