A lighthearted conversation by runners about their lives as runners and the issues that are interesting or important to them and guests of the show. TJM is meant to be a companion to you as you run. Think of us as your running partners on days when you just need some friends to get you out on an easy run. The show is composed of 10 segments, one for each mile, and every 10 minutes or so we move on to the next topic, to keep things interesting. Among the hosts' experience are ten 100-mile finishes, dozens of half and full marathons, plenty of 50-milers, and some speedy 5ks and a BQ (and a handful of DNFs). Your host, Scotty Kummer is an attorney, doberman owner and quite possibly the most painstakingly average runner known to man. Scott has stumbled through numerous plus 4 and 5 hour marathons. He's DNF'ed the 150 mile, 100 mile, 50 mile and marathon distance. Okay, and he is a member of the Order of the Hrimthurs for having completed the Arrowhead 135, the Tuscobia 160 and the Actif Epica 120K in the same calendar year (more people have walked on the moon) as well as finshed 50+ ultramarathons including several 100 mile races. He was once kicked out of an ultra runing group due to allegations of cyber-bullying. He has a habit of offending people by accident while trying to help them. He is a co-founder of the Flatlander Ultrarunners in Chicagoland which has rapidly grown to over 2000 members. He came up with the idea for Ten Junk Miles after becoming frustrated with hearing interview after interview of Scott Jurek and deciding that runners needed more: more discussions of bathroom breaks that went wrong, pacer stories from hell, DNF reports, stories of getting lost on the trail and other related matters.

    Long Run 259 Cory Reece 2026
    Mar 27 2026

    Join Scotty and Cory Reece for a long run in which they discuss Cory's life in running, his time away from the sport, and his reflections on having a life intertwined with ultrarunning and then stepping away. Fresh perspectives, realizations and insight and much much more. Cory also talks about his recent visit back to the sport at the Jackpot ultras. They also talk music a little as Cory is an accomplished pianist. This is an important discussion that should raise a few issues many people have not considered. Who would I be without running?

I have been listening to these guys for a while now. They have three different show formats. The long runs were my favorite for a long time because the gang shows were too chaotic. Now I like them all and can't get enough.

So much fun

Great podcast to listen to while running. Long runs share amazing stories of runners from around the country. Gang shows are hilarious and should be listened to in order. 5 🌟
