#28 - My First DNF - Lone Wolf SE Recap | RunBiz w/ INOV8

Tommy got his first DNF (Did Not Finish) this weekend at Lone Wolf South East. What happened? Did he injure himself? Has it ruined his path to 100 miles this summer? Or did he make the right call early enough? Find out on this episode as he recounts his training leading up to the race in the months, weeks and days prior, and talks though the event itself.

We also have our second edition of RunBiz, this time with Lee Proctor of INOV8, where we talk about INOV8's origin story, what Fell Running actually is, and where INOV8 is focused in the coming months.

The RunBiz Segment is an occasional feature on That’s Runnable, where we spotlight the businesses shaping the world of running. From innovative startups to established brands doing something different, this segment is all about showcasing the gear, nutrition, technology, and services that runners might find interesting.

Tommy will chat with founders, team members, and industry insiders - not for a sales pitch, but for a real conversation about what they’re building, why it matters, and how it fits into the running world. Whether it’s a niche brand with a cult following or a fresh idea making waves, RunBiz is here to give listeners a look behind the scenes at the businesses fuelling our sport.
