What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I found Singletrack a couple of years ago and have come to really enjoy the content Finn and the team put out. From big names in the sport (athletes, race directors, and more) as guests, to in depth and high-quality gear reviews/recommendations, it’s always worth a listen. As an athlete and a coach, I strive to always keep learning, and this show supports that!

Coach Dan Hilback · Jul 2025

Love the way they cover the top of the sport like a true pro sport. Found that other options before finding this pod were more focused on relating to the regular runner’s training but I like the focus on the elite athletes’ stories for the same reasons I like watching NFL, Olympics, The Masters. I read enough about my own training I want to follow the what the crazy fast people are doing haha! Covering the best of the best! It’s a blast. Thanks!!!

RK261 · Mar 2025

Singletrack, hosted by Finn Melanson, is hands down one of the best podcasts in the trail and ultra-running world. Finn brings a perfect mix of insightful interviews, in-depth race analysis, and thought-provoking conversations with elite athletes, coaches, and industry experts. His interviewing style is genuine, well-researched, and engaging, making every episode feel like a meaningful conversation rather than just another podcast. Whether he's breaking down race strategies, exploring the evolution of the sport, or discussing the mental and physical aspects of ultra-endurance, there’s always something valuable to take away. If you’re passionate about trail running, ultra marathons, or just love great storytelling, this is the podcast for you! Highly recommend giving it a listen! 🎙🏔🏃‍♂️

jpace13 · Mar 2025

Sweet blend of diving into the technical aspects of trail running and full on banter with guests/cohosts. Finn delivers every single episode and has been a great follow for awhile now.
