Luis Escobar

Booking Overview

This is a weekly interview show focused on trail running, ultramarathons, and other extreme endurance sports, with external guests typically including ultra-distance runners, race directors, event organizers, and endurance-focused professionals. Agencies could credibly pitch accomplished endurance athletes, trail-race founders, race organizers, and experts in runner nutrition or sustainable outdoor sports; booking difficulty is low because guests generally have strong niche credentials rather than major mainstream celebrity status.
