this episode of the UKRunChat podcast, we're joined by ultra runners, authors, and adventurers Jen & Sim Benson. They share stories of epic challenges, why ultras feel like “supported adventures,” and how the community makes the sport so special.
We also dive into their brand-new book, Ultra: The World Atlas of Ultramarathons — a beautifully curated guide to iconic and lesser-known races around the globe. Whether you’re dreaming of UTMB, curious about Mongolia’s remote ultra, or wondering if you really can walk a 100k, this episode has insights and inspiration for every trail runner.

- Jen & Sim’s journey from road marathons and climbing to ultras (00:23)
- Why ultras are “adventures with support” (03:26)
- Races that stood out, including Arc of Attrition 100 and TDS at UTMB (01:26, 06:57)
- Inside their new book Ultra — and how they chose which races made the cut (09:01, 13:36)
- Bucket-list ultras from Mongolia to the Trans-Alpine (15:02)
- Advice for first-time ultra runners: why it might not be as scary as it sounds (17:01)
- Walking an ultra — and why it might just be the best way to finish strong and avoid blisters (19:19)
- Navigation skills and mountain craft (23:47)
- Mental preparation, mindfulness, and dealing with “bad patches” (28:07)
- Future races and writing projects (34:30)
