18. Anna Gibson: Reflecting on Trail Running Season and Looking Ahead to Skimo
In this episode of Skimo Gold, Travis and Cam are joined by elite trail runner Anna Gibson to recap their 2025 trail season and look ahead to the upcoming Skimo winter. They reflect on the highs and lows of racing in Europe, managing injuries, and staying mentally resilient through setbacks and surprises.
Anna opens up about navigating a tough year with humor and perspective, while Cam shares what it’s like to pivot goals mid-season and return to his SkiMo roots. Together, they talk about training adaptations, lessons learned, and why community matters just as much as competition.
