Michelle and Louise sit down with Pauline, founder of Scottish trail‑inspired running brand Trailbreeze, to explore how a love of running in the Scottish hills sparked a business born on the trails. In August 2024, Pauline left her long‑term job in care to focus on family life and pursue something that nurtured her spirit, running the trails around her home with her spaniel, Joey. What began as a simple idea for headwear soon blossomed into a full range of trail gear, embraced by runners, dog lovers and the canicross community alike. Pauline shares her journey from that first beanie, to events, sponsorship and future plans. She explains why trails have kept her inspired, motivated and balanced. Throughout, she speaks honestly about running, business, community and simply enjoying the outdoors.  Timings 0.00 – welcome & introduction to Pauline0.30 – Pauline's story: leaving work, family life & running1.30 – how Trailbreeze began: headwear idea to brand name3.00 – Joey the spaniel 4.00 – thoughts on canicross 5.30 – quitting her job & Trailbreeze launch7.00 – running background: road vs trail experiences8.40 – Glencoe marathon & the joy of trails10.00 – weekly training & ultras12.00 – next race: GB Ultra 50 miler13.30 – Trailbreeze product beginnings: beanies & tops15.00 – retail stockists & early success16.15 – events, brand awareness & BSSF sponsorship17.00 – feedback from canicross community18.30 – technical kit details & product quality20.00 – garments: shorts, hoodies, headbands, gloves22.00 – clubs & custom gear offerings23.30 – audience ideas & new products coming soon25.00 – quickfire questions26.00 – upcoming events “Running on the trails isn’t about pace — it’s about enjoying where you are.” LinksTrail Breeze website — https://trailbreeze.co.ukTrail Breeze UK on Instagram — @trailbreezeuk
