HPRS Podcast – Episode 52: On the Growth of Ultrarunning – Revisiting the Tragedy of the Commons and Race Cannibalization

Take a run with The Human Potential Running Series podcast. For Episode 52 HPRS Race Director John Lacroix talks about the growth of our sport; specifically revisiting the concept of The Tragedy of the Commons and how the growth of our sport is contributing to race cannibalization and the struggles many race directors will soon face. 2025 is going to be an incredibly difficult year for race directors to acquire permits on USFS lands, as land managers will resort to culling the herd of races since no one seems to know when enough is enough. An important listen for the future health of the sport many of us love!
