What Is The Tea & Trails Podcast:

The Tea & Trails Podcast is a weekly podcast that combines discussions about running, outdoor adventures and personal stories, often with a focus on trail running and the running community. 

Hosts Eddie & Gary have fostered a supportive, fun and engaged community of listeners by sharing their recent race and life experiences, coaching tips, listener stories: ‘tales from the trails’, interviews with inspiring guests and discussions on the joys and challenges of the trail running lifestyle. 

Over the past 3 years the podcast has grown in popularity and now has over 50,000 monthly listeners and is often ranked #1 in Trail Running podcasts. 

“The best running podcast”

“Gary and Eddie are the perfect combination for conveying the passion that we have for our love of running through the trails. From short training runs to epic ultras, they provide the fun, laughs and knowledge that make this podcast so enjoyable.

I always look forward to each episode and guests, it's always motivational, informative and inspiring.

By far the best podcast, I think they even surprise themselves how good this stuff is!”
