  • NonnyB55
    Great show
    I don’t even run trails or ultras, just roads but I really appreciate the relatability of the guests and the stories. Thank you for the time and effort you put into the podcast over the years.
  • Chefthechef
    Hilarious people who share a trail running hobby
    Jeff and Steven and Timmy Time and their hostile witness Marcie are truly hilarious people who talk about ultras and trail running every once in a while. And though you might think by the name that there’s a bunch of foul language don’t be fooled. It really is a wholesome, family show. Heard about this podcast from Melody and Jason at Trail to 100 and haven’t stopped binging for the last two weeks. Great show. And tell Marcie that with her stubbornness she’d be a great ultra runner if one of you happens to eventually persuade her to run more than half a mile.
  • 777Marty777
    I love this podcast!
    Still enjoy this podcast! Love the content for trail runners of all levels.
  • GreatLakesBrandie
    Great Podcast, I love it!
    I get new ideas and inspiration to challenge myself every time I listen. From touching trail runner stories to tips on gear, it has it all and is entertaining too!
  • CV_Drt_Rnr 16
    Great running inspiration!!
    Love the podcast! From relatable runner stories, inspiration to persevere, and tips to make make your runs better; you’ll find it here. I even share a birthday with the host😂. Thanks Jeff and team, keep up the great work!!
  • Cam The Pan
    It moved me!
    I love the “Why I run” series! Hearing everyday folks share how they accomplish and overcome their challenges is inspiring! It motivates me to get out the door! Oh and hearing Jeff and the gang banter is soooo entertaining! Go BAR herd!
  • Davedes33
    Love the podcast
    Been running now for about 2 1/2 years and love the show. Very relatable to me and a new “slow” runner. Love the guests along with Timmy time and Marci. Gives me motivation to keep training for my first 50k later this year. Keep up the good work.
  • bob jeff face
    Great Podcast
    Although I could do without the singing 😆 this is a great informative running podcast.
  • ClarityStrikes
    Fun, relatable, approachable, and great info!
    Great show for both new and experienced trail runners. Love how approachable and ‘real’ the host keeps it! Also good spread of info, from technical to ‘real people’ interviews.
  • Crewfan5
    Running Podcast for the Rest of Us
    Entertaining and fun podcast to listen to on your run (or behind your desk). Feels like you are having a conversation with fellow runners on a nice and easy run. A run that usually ends with a big plate of pancakes! Variety of segments keeps it fresh and a great cast of characters to join in from time to time. I really enjoy the Strava group and the encouragement other listeners give you on your runs and it really feels like a local running community despite most of us having never met each other. What are you waiting for? Download it already!
  • mamabear.hume
    From a want to be trail runner
    I love this! Found this early in my weight loss journey when I was walking but wanted to start running. I did start running (VERY SLOWLY) This is excellent for the everyday runner (and the wannabe runners too!) Truly entertaining and encouraging.
  • SkylerDurden
    Setting the B.A.R.
    This podcast always brightens my day and puts a smile on my face. There are so many helpful tips, nuggets of knowledge and down to earth discussions you don’t want to miss out on. Also, the music features are top notch! If you know, you know! El Jeffè and the Bazors are those friends that you love to go hang out with because you know you’ll have sore abs the next day (extra cross training.)😁
  • Love tv!
    Give it a listen!
    This podcast always makes me laugh, sometimes makes me cry, encourages me to get out and run with my new friends (the herd), and inspires me to work to be the best version of myself. Hope to see you folks on the trail sometime!
  • @Pooradventurer
    Best Trail Company
    I just started running July 2020 and am now training for my first trail ultra. I’m running by myself, so these guys help the miles feel easy and fully of company! Throughly enjoy their banter no matter what the topic.
  • calebdille
    Must Listen!
    Couldn’t recommend this enough! What really makes this podcast shine is their genuine friendship with each and their guests. Not to mention how they engage the running community. Their humor is right up my alley and often times has me laughing out loud at work. Keep up the great work fellas! I’ll continue to tune in!
  • BensMom88
    Taking the edge off…
    I was looking for a running podcast. Not necessarily trail, not necessarily road. I was just looking for something to listen to while at work or while I’m running or on my Peloton. I wanted something to listen to that would encourage me and also to get pointers from. Well I found it with y’all. You seriously have taken the edge off of this mind that doesn’t stop overthinking things. I am basically a road runner but by the end of the year my oldest daughter wanted me to sign up for 100 K at the Javelina Jundred. (Well I did.)She’s running 100 miler for the 2nd time. I am also going to be pacing her at Eastern states.You guys hit trail running from so many angles from pacing, to working in a aid station to running. I feel like I’m sitting around a campfire talking and laughing with long time friends. I’ve learned so much in the past two weeks as a binge listen to your podcast.Thank you so much for having such a fun, informative and honest podcast. Just wish I could find Timmy Time on Pandora to listen to when I run lol.😂😂😂
  • Sodak14
    A Reall Fun Running Podcast
    An awesome running podcast that has a bit of everything: great hosts, entertaining and educational segments/guests, and all around a very pleasant podcast to listen to. The funny and engaging hosts (Jeff and Steven)are your average, everyday runners that are juggling work and family like most of us.
  • Mutant fish lover
    Top Trail Running Podcast!
    I found this podcast about 4 months ago
  • ConstantTweet
    5+ Stars
    By far, my favorite running podcast! Funny, encouraging, and positive. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. My 13 year old son loves it too. Keep doing a great job!
  • Nanderson11
    Premium content!
    You really took it up a notch in Episode 80 with Jeff race prepping with Coach Greg! A great “behind the scenes” conversation that benefits all trail runners.
  • MMK213
    Trail running for every body
    I’m so excited to find a podcast on trail running for the regular person who comes in all shapes and sizes!
  • grannyGear13
    Great show for runners of all types
    I enjoy listening to this show for the content and the humor. Steve and Jeff are excellent at bringing information to their segments balanced with fun listening. The topics are right in line with my own training and there is always something to learn from the show. Keep up the great work guys and thanks for the podcast!
  • @kleedawg
    Awesome pod for new trail runners!
    So funny and heartfelt pod, truly inspirational for those just getting into trail running. New fave! Jeff and Steven and the BAH gang are building something special!!
  • PaulLovesTacos
    Good show for slow miles and fun times
    I found this podcast a few months ago and have enjoyed listening the the guys talk about trail running, gear, and the occasional Timmy Time segment which has nothing to do with running but is a lot of fun. More duets, please. Going to be listening to the back catalog while I train for my first trail 50K.
  • A Tuck
    Fun, informative, hilarious
    Totally love this podcast and thrilled that I found it. The chemistry between the hosts is magic. Informative and often hilarious, excellent blend and right on time. Keep it up guys!!
  • McColganPhoto
    Awesome podcast!!
    I don't listen to anything while running, but this is easily one of my favorite podcasts to listen in the car. It really feels like your listening to some buddies and their fun stories, and they just happen to know some really smart people to bring in for the more technical aspects on occasion.
  • mgleqna
    Great running buddies!
    I mean I guess these guys are cool.. I listen to them during long runs. I was expecting a donkey hosting podcast or the podcast to be talking about how to run with your donkey but I guess Steven and Tim will do….
  • Mooseman123456789
    I’m not even a trail runner but I love this podcast
    I’m a road runner without much access to trails but I still find myself tuning in every week to hear from the informative and and entertaining Jeff and Stephen. Their sense of humor is just the best makes me feel like I’m in the studio with them.
  • JakePrefersDirt
    Great show!
    Just like chatting with a couple running buddies even though you’re alone in the woods with a headlamp!🤣
  • Jaycin71
    The BEST Podcast for Everyday Runners !
    I found this podcast a few months ago and was immediately hooked! Jeff and Steven make you feel like you’re just hanging out with old friends and having a good time. There’s plenty of humor, pro tips, running gear reviews, and encouragement for everyday runners of every stripe. If you’re strictly a road runner, you might just find yourself taking a detour from the asphalt to check out what the dirt has to offer. Come and join the Herd!
  • basketballdad2
    Must listen
    Absolutely love this podcast. Good clean fun. Very entertaining.
  • pdcrunner
    Give them a listen
    If you agree that runners, especially ultra runners are a little weird, then this show is for you!
  • running alexis
    I love this podcast!
    New subscriber here and I’m telling you, this podcast is obsess worthy. It’s funny, relatable and heart felt. I especially love the “why I run” segments, each story has a little something special that makes me get all teary eyed. This podcast makes me want to keep on running and makes me feel good about where I’m at in my trail running journey. 50 star rating from me!
  • @melmek
    Listen!
    I absolutely love this podcast. It’s both hilarious and informative. I’ve just started trail running and this podcast has inspired me to want to do a 50k in the next year. Melissa
  • katiemusser
    A real winner!
    Not just an amazing podcast but a stellar community of everyday runners celebrating together one-another’s achievements! Great information and entertainment with out the elite undertones of most running podcast. A true “come as you are” arena for all runners. You’ll laugh and maybe even cry at the “why I run” segments these guys always delivers a good listen!
  • Running Caniac
    Favorite Podcast
    By far my favorite podcast and it’s not just for trail runners. I’m not an all the time trail runner but I still get a lot from this podcast. It’s not overly technical but they have some great content that mixes in humor. Highly recommend.
  • Billy Ornold
    My favorite running podcast!
    Although not very often a “trail runner” I absolutely love this podcast. Two down to earth guys and a cast of others that show up from time to time combine humor, stories and just plain good advice to entertain to the fullest. Definitely check it out!
  • Clark [dying.2.self]
    Binge Worthy
    I found this podcast by searching for a podcast for “Clydesdale” runners. Despite its name, however, Big A** Runners is for trail runners and wannabe trail runners. It is not your typical trailing advice and technical information, rather, it is like hanging out with some buddies who enjoy trail running as much as you do. It is wonderfully produced and I look forward to catching up with the hosts and regular guests each episode. I liked it so much binge listened to every episode over the course of a couple of weeks. Great to listen to in runs!
  • 22Meme22
    So entertaining!
    I look forward to listening to this podcast every week. I love the variety of segments. Some are informational, some are inspiring and some are just funny. Thank you!
  • rson490
    The podcast for ALL runners
    The segmented structure of the podcast is great! The content is even better! On top of that, there is great lighthearted humor placed into the mix. It’s a podcast that can be relatable for all runners from beginner to advanced, which I greatly appreciate. The stories told are also very motivating and help me get a foot out the door to go for a run. I encourage anyone who runs or is interested in getting into running, to listen to the podcast!
  • APPAREL EFX
    Best Running Podcast!
    This podcast is a breath of fresh air. Being a clydesdale runner who loves the trails, it’s nice to listen to a podcast that I can TRULY relate to. Listener intros are an awesome idea that gets the listeners involved and keeps them engaged. Keep the awesome content coming!
  • SydRy13
    Great Running Podcast!
    I love listening to this podcast on my long runs- educational, entertaining and motivating.
  • 97racing
    5 stars all day!
    I listen on Spotify, but I had to come over here just to say thanks for the great content! If your a fan of trail running or want to learn some things about it, this is the podcast for you. Highly recommend!
  • BatteryStar
    I 💗 Timmy Time❣️
    I am so happy i found your podcast. I really enjoyed Timmy Time. April 4th episode about ratios. Your voice to Barry Manilowe a special reverberation. I’m not a professional runner. I still enjoy podcasts featuring running. Peace.
  • jenthatruns
    Perfect timing!
    I found the podcast when I needed it most! I absolutely love these guys! The content has me laughing, crying and learning! My running partner is pregnant and i have had to run alone a few times .. but listening to the podcast helps me not feel alone. Looking forward to training for my 50miles on my 50th bday in july listening to the podcast! 🏃🏼‍♀️❤️ 🌄
  • Tiviedoo
    Great real podcast
    Listened to episode 25 and you gave my amazing friends Bill and Bill (the older gentleman and the marine friend) a shout out! Thank you for what you did for him and giving him a shout out! Great episode of real people
  • ThirstyRunnerGirl
    Fantastic
    If you listen to episode #25, the word “fantastic” makes a lot of sense. Funny guys, relevant topics and they keep it fun!
  • terrybear13
    Funny and motivational
    These guys have put together a perfect running podcast for all runner! Listened to episode 26 then started back at episode 1 and looking forward to binge listening to catch up!
  • Sheila G. Gibson
    My favorite knuckleheads
    These guys are refreshingly positive, funny and entertaining. The best thing about Monday morning is knowing there’s going to be a new episode waiting for download. Everything from aid station staples to Porto-cans to gear selection are among trail runners’ favorite topics.
  • Run for fun when to 345678
