Kilian Jornet | 2026 Western States 100 Pre-Race Interview

Kilian Jornet is the greatest trail and mountain runner of all time. He joins us coming off a third-place finish at last year's Western States, back again to chase the win in this year's edition. His history here runs deep. He won in 2011, and debuted back in 2010, the famous "Unbreakable" edition, where he dueled with Geoff Roes and Anton Krupicka all day before landing on the podium in third. We don't often get the chance to sit down with Kilian, so we used the opportunity to go wider too and get his read on the state of the sport. Hope you enjoy.
