  • Ep. 127 Black Men Run TURF. With Jay Tinsley

    Ep. 127 Black Men Run TURF. With Jay Tinsley
    Dec 16 2024
    “I run for a purpose now, and that purpose has continued to evolve over the years.”Jay Tinsley wasn’t always a runner but the sport certainly stuck with him once he embraced it. The sense of community that followed is what has kept Jay around, and all he wants to do is share that with others. As a leader of Black Men Run Trail and Ultra Running Fanatics (TURF), Jay's mission is to bridge the gap between the road and trail running communities, encouraging others to embrace the joys of trails. His efforts to introduce trail running to more members of BMR reflect his belief in fostering connection and adventure: “How can I get the rest of my guys, who pretty much stick to the roads, to feel that sense of community in the trail world as well?”Jay creates many events and opportunities through BMRTURF (he runs the Phoenix chapter) to get off the roads and onto the trails. Even though his community is strong and supportive, he still worries from time to time that people aren’t hearing his message. "I have irrational anxiety that no one will show up," Jay joked, only to note that his community "always shows up."I had such a great time chatting with Jay. It’s clear he’s supportive and passionate about this sport, and wants to get as many others involved as he can. I love that attitude and can’t wait to see where Black Men Run Trails and Ultra Running Fanatics go from here.Trail Running Film Festival Contest!With early bird tickets now on sale and excitement growing for our 2025 tour dates, we thought it would be the perfect time for a ticket giveaway.

  • Ep. 126 Gotta Run Racing. With Jodi McNeill and Norm Nadon

    Ep. 126 Gotta Run Racing. With Jodi McNeill and Norm Nadon
    Dec 9 2024
    “Finish line. All the vibes at the finish line, whether it's tears or laughter or appreciation, you cannot replicate that feeling. Whether you're the runner or you're the race director.” - Jodi McNeillJodi McNeill and Norm Nadon have been running for a long time and they’ve had the sport be an even bigger part of their lives than most, having run a retail shop for a while. The one constant love in the sport they both share is the love of community. The opportunity to share that with others and grow their own is one they both embrace as the hosts of the Gotta Run Racing Podcast. The podcast was something that was on their radar for quite some time, and all it took was the pandemic to kick it into gear.“The funny thing is that I always wanted to do a podcast even before we sold our store, and I bought all the equipment, I threw it in the closet, and that's where it was for a year. And then the pandemic, we sold our store and I said, okay, now's the time. And thanks to YouTube, how do you edit? How do you produce? How do you market? I learned on YouTube. And yeah, that's how it came to the podcast today.” - Norm NadonJodi and Norm were kind enough to have me on their show as well, which you can find here! Make sure to listen to both shows and let us know what you think. I had a blast learning more about them and I equally enjoyed getting the chance to share some more about myself on the Gotta Run Podcast.The Trail Running Film Festival is coming to JasperThe Trail Running Film Festival is back, and we are hosting 6 shows this year! I’m incredibly excited to be returning to Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Canmore, and Crowsnest Pass. And we’ve just nailed down our 6th show, the one we’ve been hinting at, as we’re headed to Jasper in 2025! It will be a fundraiser show to help recover from the terrible wildfires earlier in 2024. We’re so pumped to be working with Jasper Community Habitat for the Arts to bring the festival to Jasper. All proceeds from this specific show will be split between the Habitat for the Arts and the Jasper Volunteer Fire Brigade. We saw the Run for Jasper had raised funds for the brigade through that event and thought it was a great idea. A massive thank you to Mathias, Amanda, and everyone else at the Trail Running Film Festival for donating the license for this show. It truly will be every dollar raised going back into the community. Tickets are on sale now and if you can’t make it but want to donate, we have a donation option on the site as we’d love to raise as much as we can for these Jasper groups. It’s an iconic Canadian outdoor space and the Trail Running Film Festival seems like a great fit and way to help the revival of that great community. I can’t wait to hang out with you all again, celebrate our amazing sport, and grow this festival to provide an even more fun and entertaining evening for everyone involved. Our early bird tickets are on sale now for the newly announced Jasper show, as well as Vancouver at the Rio, Edmonton at the Garneau, and Crowsnest Pass at Frank Slide. They are $25 and will go up to $30 on January 1, and they will be $35 at the door. So you might as well save a few bucks while you can. We are so damn excited to have 5 Peaks and the Stoked Scramble/Stoked Ultra back as our Platinum sponsor this year. They have been incredible to work with as they are so supportive and so encouraging and have been since day 1. They love this event as much as we do and we’re super grateful to Jacob Puzey for all the support. They give us so many goodies to give away as well, it means the world to us!We also have Black Lung Ultra from Nordegg, AB coming on as a sponsor for our tour. Last year they got involved with our Alberta shows and had so much fun they are getting even more involved this year! Their race sold out in its inaugural year back in September, and we’re pumped to help them sell out again in 2025! A massive thank you to Petrea, Nick, Michael, and Brandon for their constant encouragement and support. We will likely announce some more sponsors in the coming weeks, we’ll have guests to announce, and we’re working on fun acts like the surprise burlesque opening act we had in Vancouver in 2024. We want to lean into the word “festival” and do that by including local artists and performers, so we can continue to spotlight our amazing communities. I’m so pumped to be working with Jeannine Avelino again on all of this. She’s such an incredible community member and human being and I’m lucky to have her involved. And of course, my wife Sheena is always helping and finding ways to add value to our shows. I’m grateful to her. We have a small but mighty team and we plan on showing what we can do to make 2025 your favourite year yet! Get your tickets now.The Miller Minutes #2This was our second meeting and I had a bit of a struggle this month as a storm blew snow in for nearly a week straight. I’ve not had to deal with ...
