ANNA TROUP | Spine Race 2026 Winner!
Monday, 9 February, 2026
Get in touch with Ultrarunning Sam here ⬅️Anna Troup joins the Home Trails Podcast to talk all things Spine Race!Anna has a long history with the race and this year saw her win the women's race in 109 hours, in some epic weather conditions. Anna talks about her preparations (or lack of) going into this race. Off the back of winning the summer edition of the race, Anna yet again had to deal with reoccurring issues with stress fractures that almost put her out of the race.We dive into the ongoing issue of injury and how she has kept her huge endurance base that she's built over 40 years in sport! How doctors told her not to race and how she came to the start line in January with one goal......finishing the race.We talk about her drive to encourage more women to sign up to the race and the small community on WhatsApp that's now grown to include over 300 members! We talk about the changes to the race and how it's perceived to affect women signing up going forward and her plans to continue building the women's support group.Anna was a pleasure to interview and I'm sure she will be back again for more episodes in the future!HT@ultrarunning_sam @hometrails_ http://www.youtube.com/@ultrarunningsam
