In this episode, Dani Moreno and EmKay Sullivan sit down with Scottish trail running star Naomi Lang, a Salomon-sponsored athlete who has rapidly risen through the international mountain and trail running scene.

Naomi first broke onto the radar with a standout 5th-place finish at the European Up & Down Championships, and she hasn’t slowed down since. In 2025, she delivered a breakout season—earning bronze podium finishes at the Marathon du Mont-Blanc, ETC, and the World Trail Championships (Short Trail), and securing her first Golden Trail World Series victory with a dominant win at Pitz Alpine Glacier Trail in August.

The Sub Hub dives into Naomi’s background in life and sport, what it’s been like navigating the professional trail running world as a relative newcomer, a deep breakdown of her massive 2025 season, and what she’s setting her sights on heading into 2026.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or just getting to know one of the sport’s rising forces, this episode offers insight into the mindset, growth, and momentum behind one of trail running’s most exciting athletes.
