Community Trail Running Chats With the Filmmakers of TRFF’26

Adam Lee of Community Trail Running, media partner of the Trail Running Film Festival and good friends of mine:

I’m always excited to chat with the filmmakers behind the stories we feature during the Trail Running Film Festival. This is a pleasure for me as I get to get excited for festival season and spread the word about what these great creations are all about! We’re starting with “Becky Bates, Not a Running Story”. Scot Proudfoot and Lukas Neemeth joined me and it was great hearing all about it!

I love when Adam does these interviews. It’s such a great way to get excited for the upcoming tour and such a cool way to give the filmmakers a platform to share their ‘why’ behind these incredible stories.

Sunday, March 15th, 2026 the tour kicks off in my hometown Olympia, Washington with a screening at the historic Capitol Theater. Being able to see the project I worked on for the past six+ month on their incredible 4K screen always brings tears to my eyes. Cannot wait!
