"The Dirt" Trailrunning Podcast

Loretta Tobolske-Horn, Lindsay Phenix

Booking Overview

A mixed coaching and race-recap podcast focused on trail and ultramarathon running, it combines host-led training episodes with occasional interviews featuring credentialed experts such as physicians and endurance-nutrition executives. PR agencies could credibly pitch sports-medicine specialists, endurance coaches, athlete-health experts, sports-nutrition researchers, and leaders of relevant performance brands; booking difficulty is medium because guests need strong subject-matter expertise but are generally niche industry professionals rather than mainstream celebrities.
