Tom Evans is a British ultrarunner who has made a very quick and impressive mark on the sport in the last few years. Without a background in running, Tom found trail and ultrarunning while serving in the British military when he signed up for the Marathon des Sables on a drunken whim. Incredibly, he finished third, launching him on his amazing career trajectory. Recently, Tom ran a 1:03 half marathon, showing his range and talent in shorter races as well. I hope this conversation gives you all a glimpse into the mind of one of the world’s best and someone who represents the future of professional trail and ultrarunning.
