James LaurielloHOST
yeah yeah it's it's local um so i've got what is it 2006 2010 and 2014 for the world long distance mountain running champ somewhere in that range yeah
Mark TatumHOST
Yeah, so in 2014, Sage Canaday won, and that was the year that Allie Mack jumped into the race and really had never done a trail race before.
Mark TatumHOST
But she had been training a lot on the incline and was kind of at post-college career and decided to try out her local Pikes Peak Ascent and won the world championship.
Mark TatumHOST
Yeah.
Tony MedranoGUEST
Yeah, it's on the banned list.
Zach VogtHOST
It's, it's on the banned list, and Sage Canaday comes out and, like, s- you know, files a complaint.
Zach VogtHOST
And it's this whole fuss because Sage Canaday is well-known in the, in the industry, and Cam Hayne's is well-known.
Zach VogtHOST
And it, and it's-
Tony MedranoGUEST
Yeah
ChrisHOST
Who?
DannyHOST
Sage Canaday.
DannyHOST
I want him to weigh in.
ScottyHOST
I think we need that.
ChrisHOST
Um, but he did make a-- I saw he made a comment about how the glaciers look smaller than before in Switzerland or wherever the-- It's in Switzerland, Italy, and France, uh, so I don't know where he was, but he said that made him sad, so-
DannyHOST
Oh, man
ChrisHOST
... going back to our last Banter pod, it, it would appear that Sage Canaday does believe in climate change.
DannyHOST
Yeah, and maybe if some people didn't litter, then the, the glaciers would be bigger.
Brian PetersonGUEST
trigger people
TommyHOST
but sometimes we say things that might trigger people so that is what this episode is it is always going to be like that we'll bring wolfie on occasionally to just try and hash out some things there will be conversation about sage canaday and cam haynes and a surrounding drama of recent weeks and i want you to be gracious to us in some of our takes as we explain in the episode it's not easy talking about these things and sometimes people have opinions that are different from yours and that shouldn't necessarily paint an entire picture or judgment of that person anyway without further rambling ado i bring you my conversation with brian wolfie peterson
Brian PetersonGUEST
5 36 a.m 5 36 a.m
TommyHOST
what time does that mean you woke up
20 MINS LATER
TommyHOST
are just to try and capture some of the audience that may have missed all this drama because we're we're so in the niche and yeah that's true right you know blah blah blah uh and i i want to go deeper here i i want to sort of actually dig around a But for those who don't know what's going on, I'd be actually interested to hear your summary from your perspective, given we have different algorithms and we have different perspectives.
TommyHOST
I want to hear your summary.
TommyHOST
What's gone down? Who's Sage Canaday? Who's Cam Haynes? Who's Mike McKnight? What's going on, man?
Brian PetersonGUEST
Yeah, I mean, Sage has been around the trail and ultra scene for over a decade, you know, 2012-ish, I would imagine.
Stephan SchusterGUEST
a lot there alone.
John LaCroixHOST
I've got Sage Canaday written down.
Stephan SchusterGUEST
Okay.
John LaCroixHOST
And then 200 milers in general.
44 MINS LATER
Stephan SchusterGUEST
It was like 20 degrees that night.
Stephan SchusterGUEST
You know, you're like making food into the wee hours of the morning, you're like setting up and taking down aid stations, you're driving long distances, like it's definitely not easy, even if like everything goes smoothly.
John LaCroixHOST
So let's transition over to good old Sage Canaday.
Stephan SchusterGUEST
Okay.
Nicole YedlinskiGUEST
You know, there, um, there have, there was this issue with Cam Lewis, right, who, uh, competed in the, what was it, the Eugene Marathon and ran like a 230, 30-something.
Nicole YedlinskiGUEST
And then after the fact, uh, Sage Canaday reported him to USADA saying, "Hey, here's this guy who, uh, ran this time, and I think he podiumed or something." And, um, but I don't- I'm not sure he actually took that, that place.
Nicole YedlinskiGUEST
It was the, one of the US championships.
Nicole YedlinskiGUEST
And it was like, "Okay, you admitted to using a banned substance, and now here you are competing in a USAT sanctioned event." Um, and that brings up a whole bunch of other issues and questions about, uh, clean sport and, and the, the whole doping-
TommyHOST
It's just from my perspective what I've seen happen on social media and in Substack posts and other videos that I've watched, and the general kind of discussion around it.
TommyHOST
But essentially, it all sort of kicked off because Sage Canaday, who has been on the elite side of running of all distances for many years and has a relatively large following on social media, but I think more so on YouTube, um, he has, he basically engaged in one of Cam Haynes' posts.
TommyHOST
So, so Cam Haynes is very well known on the other side of the political spectrum, you could say, from Sage Canaday.
TommyHOST
Uh, and I think these thi- the, what, the way I'm describing it, I think, is important in some ways, but Sage Canaday, I believe, is not a...
TommyHOST
I don't know if he's vegan or if he, he just doesn't eat meat.
TommyHOST
I don't know.
TommyHOST
Uh, anyway, I, I don't wanna sort of make moral judgments on either of them really.
TommyHOST
I'm just sort of trying to sort of paint the picture of the t- the type of people involved.
Jeff BrowningGUEST
So, sorry to get off on a tangent there.
Jeff BrowningGUEST
Oh, no, no. Uh- Look, it's, we're, you know, it's, it's, um, I listened to Jeff Gaudette's conversation with Sage Canaday.
Jeff BrowningGUEST
Sage has been on this podcast b- a couple t- uh, he's been on this podcast and, um, I was out for a run, I was listening.
Jeff BrowningGUEST
I was like, man, this is a really nuanced, reasonable conversation, and it makes sense, and it's polite and respectful, and I can get behind that.
ErikGUEST
And I turn around and there's this guy head to toe Hoka gear.
ErikGUEST
And I'm like, oh, man, that's Sage Canaday.
ErikGUEST
So I asked him if he needed anything.
ErikGUEST
And then once he was just like, oh, I'm just trying to find my tent.
