No one tells stories the way Dylan does.

I really enjoy listening to the way Dylan asks questions and how comfortable the conversations flow. Great running podcast.

Stokes the fire of trail running.

Great show, content! 5 star review. My only feedback is for D-BO to allow guests to fully explain and reduce his interruptions to the guests.

Always informative and topical. My go to on long runs. I enjoy Dylan’s interviewing style and humbleness.

…one podcast at a time. ✌🏻💚🏃🏼‍♂️

A couple of years ago I left a mediocre review of the Freetrail podcast but I wanted to update my review here a couple of years later as I continued to listen in. Over the last couple of years Dylan has without question built and established the absolute best trail running podcast in the industry. This is now the gold standard. Interviews with guests are so on point, and two-way conversational. Which has been an excellent listen each week. And coverage of the sport at large and on a broad scale is even better. Kudos to Dylan and his team. I hope he is in this game for the long haul. This pod is single handedly helping grow our sport in such a positive and inclusive way. I often tune into other content mediums around the sport of Trail Running and I often hear the Freetrail pod referenced for good reason. If you are a trail athlete, this is a must listen pod.

Always feel like I learn a lot from this podcast.

Phenomenal job with the culture, history and competition preceding 2024 Western States. Informed and kind.

Dylan does a great interview/conversation with his guests. It’s refreshing to hear a podcast where the host does ramble on endlessly about himself and his own agenda. Really enjoyable and informative.

I drove 5 miles under the speed limit and took every back road I could find to get through the episode before I got to work. So many gems!

Great first episode! Loved it!

Dylan has a knack for casual, fluid, gab that draws the story out of his guests and brings attention to the person behind the athlete. His genuine enthusiasm, depth of knowledge, and natural skills as an interviewer make it a listen I keep coming back to. Highly recommend!

Always relevant and insightful.

Whether you’re just entering the trail running world or have been here for decades, this podcast is an absolute MUST

Dylan Bowman throughly his studies his sport. He has a genuine passion trail running and it shows in his enthusiasm and engagement with his guests.

Dylan lives and breathes trail running. Love each podcast.

The FreeTrail Pod is one of the best not only trail running based shows, but one of my favorite podcasts in any subject matter. Dylan is clearly such an impressive athlete (and person), this show is an information farm for me that I learn something from every time I tap in. I walk away inspired. I’ve been listening for a couple of years now, but continue to appreciate this show and the perspectives more and more with time. It inspired me to jump into FreeTrailPro, which is an amazing group of people and well worth it for anyone who loves this sport or the people that participate within. My knowledge base grew overnight and it’s supporting people that are doing awesome stuff! As I get more involved with this sport and community, this pod (and FreeTrail) are a NorthStar for me to follow. Love all of this, thank you. Eric

Inspiring, entertaining, captivating storytelling that stays with you and leaves you awaiting the next episode!

Dylan is the GOAT of podcasting. So thoughtful and does his research. Thank you for the contribution to the community! Love this podcast.

I’d give 10 stars if I could. Protect this man at all costs!

Love their coverage of big events and their wide range of guests. Subtracted one star because I don’t like hearing about building a media business.

Not sure why we needed to hear from Mr Machismo himself Cam Hanes. Hard pass for me on that gun-loving conservative. Dude makes David Goggins look like a yoga instructor. He described his life goal on his website as becoming “the ultimate predator.” Just glance at his merch store: all about his “haters,” and how “no one cares (about what exactly?), work harder!” Not the vibe I’m looking for in “trail culture,” (whatever that nebulous term means).

Excellent coverage, reporting, comments, etc….all week. And on You Tube as well. As a French speaking fan of your show, I have to correct you (and most English speaking people). When saying MONT-BLANC, do not pronounce the C ! ! And by the way, same for Sauvignon Blanc, for people who are celebrating !! Safe return home. 🙂

Appreciate this podcast by Dylan. Thoughtful questions and stirring conversations. Put it on your must-listen-to list!

I enjoy the podcast from time to time but it’s hard to find a lot of it relatable. There isn’t a ton of diversity in guests (it’s mostly elite runners who have it all) and at times some it just comes across boastful. I still follow though.

Dylan has a deep rooted love of ultra and all things trail running has to offer. Free Trail Podcast is inspiring and informative. My go to for all the latest information on the top runners and the latest gear.

Freetrail has grown on me over the last several months. Right out of the gate, I enjoyed it, but wasn’t gripped by it. Dylan is so low-key and the vibe so relaxed it didn’t grip me during my first few listens. But after a while I came to really appreciate how thoughtful Dylan is and what a genuinely good dude he seems to be. Once that happened this podcast became sort of like listening to a friend and then the low key relaxed vibe made all the sense. I now love freetrail. Dylan is a great interviewer and has on some really impressive and interesting guests and after a few episodes you feel like you’re just hanging out in the living room listening to friends who happen to be world class elite athletes share their stories. Most of the time I finish an episode and can feel what Dylan means when he says trail running will save the world.

I look forward to each episode and it never disappoints. I’ve been trail running for years and consume a lot a “trail media” but I appreciate everything about this podcast. Keep up the good work DBo and company!

Love listening out on the run or in the car. Flows so well and not too many questions, Dylan let’s the pro’s/guests talk and I’ve learned so much since I started listening 3 months ago. Free trail is one of my go to mental supplements to stay motivated and occupied while grinding it out on the trails and in life! Loved the most recent episode with Tom Evans about goal setting and running psychology. Solid podcast!

Love this podcast, DBo’s curious and compassionate nature results in unique insights. Love the variety of guests and the I especially enjoy the preview shows with Corrine!

Dylan has great discussion with trail runners. I enjoy the occasional interview with international athletes as it has broadened my knowledge on the sport.

Great podcast with Shannon O'Grady!!

Love the pod. I’m an older trail dog and appreciate hearing the young guys and gals stories.

Dylan is a champion of trail culture. With a diverse and dynamic guest list, I eagerly await each episode drop. Dylan has a unique ability as as interviewer, providing well researched insight, thoughtful POV, and the skill to provide space for the guest’s voice and story to really shine. DBo is on a mission to elevate the trail world through community, storytelling, and bringing voice to its deep culture.

Dylan always has fascinating guests and all the right questions. His love for the sport and passion for what he’s doing shines through this show.

Dylan’s great….awesome guests….best trail running podcast out there…blah blah blah. No…seriously…all this is true!

Totally killer podcast with such great guests, really interesting topics and awesome host. Thanks for all y’all do for the trail running community!

Amazing interviews, information and love for the people and the sport.

Love this podcast and listening to the insights DBo gives and so many great guests from the trail community. Never miss an episode and love what Freetrail is doing for the trail culture.

Dylan is a great commentator on the sport. And it pairs fantastically with his experience as a top competitor as well. Nowhere else are you going to get that perspective. In addition, he brings on great guests to ensure listeners get a ton of value.

Stumbled on this amazing podcast. The host (Dylan or DBo) is a great communicator and finds really interesting guests. Nothing annoying and no wasting time. It’s really broadened my horizons while still being (mostly) focused on trail running.

New to the ultra/trail world and this podcast has really helped me get great content for my adventures. Dylan’s passion for what he does comes out in his work and that is why I love this podcast so much. Keep up the great work!!

Thanks for all the great work, Dylan!

Fantastic insights, fun stories, Dylan is a great interviewer, this is the best trail running podcast.

Love to listen to Dylan, great content! Thank you DBO!!!!

I think I’ve listened to more hours of this podcast than I have any other podcast. Love it!

Hearing “Hey fam!” and “Love you all” brings a smile to my face each episode. Dylan brings such connection to each episode that even I, as an east coast trail newbie, feel like I’m part of something bigger and so important. I’ve also really enjoyed witnessing the evolution of Freetrail and can’t wait to see what the future (or next episode) holds!

Dylan’s love of the sport is felt in every respectful interview he does. He delves in really interesting ways and his expertise is felt too. And I don’t hate that he’s just a really nice guy too.

I’ve listened to most of Dylan’s podcasts since he launched Freetrail and even many before under the old brand. They are all really informative excellent interviews about ultra running and trail running with top-notch guests and well structured conversations. Lately, he has really stepped it up to an even higher level with interviews like Jim Walmsley, Ryan Sandes, Francois D’Hanene and Kilian Jornet - amazing interviews with the top trail runners in the world being open about their successes and failures and telling fascinating stories about all of their incredible adventures. Well done To Dylan for all that you are doing to bring these conversations to a broader audience.
