Fresh off a stacked Ultra-Trail Kosciuszko 50km, newly minted Aussie citizen Juliette Sewell joins Jess and Brodie for a deep dive into one of the most competitive women’s fields of the Australian trail-running season. Juliette breaks down her fifth-place finish, navigating a brutal descent, shin-scare drama, dialled-in fuelling, and race-day winds that literally knocked her off her feet. We unpack tactics, training tweaks, heat adaptation, uphill treadmill work and her big 2025 target: chasing a Golden Ticket at Tarawera.

Brodie then recaps his gritty run at Great Southern Endurance Run, while Jess reflects on a tough but powerful Kosci finish before diving into results.

A packed, honest, news-driven episode for anyone following Australia’s summer trail racing pulse.
