Alastair Dixon Email & Phone Number

Hi, I’m Alastair — founder of Trail & Kale, professional running shoe reviewer, and dedicated marathoner and ultrarunner with over a decade of experience in writing about running and outdoor gear. My passion lies in delivering honest, experience-driven insights to help runners and adventurers make informed decisions about the gear they rely on.Through countless miles of rigorous testing, I’ve built a reputation for offering unfiltered, practical reviews of running shoes, gear, and outdoor tech. Whether it's pushing a shoe to its limits on technical trails or clocking road miles to evaluate performance and durability, I focus on real-world application — not hype or superficial testing.What sets my work apart is a genuine commitment to authenticity. I’ve created a platform that rejects influencer culture, prioritizing trust and transparency in every review and roundup. From in-depth running shoe reviews and ranked gear lists to opinion pieces and lifestyle tech insights, everything I produce is grounded in a passion for the sport and a relentless drive to keep things real.When I’m not testing gear or writing, you’ll find me exploring trails with my energetic border collie, Kepler. Together, we embody the spirit of adventure and the belief that performance isn’t just about the stats — it’s about the experience.Connect with me if you’re looking to collaborate, discuss running gear, or share your own insights about the outdoor lifestyle. Let’s keep running and adventuring with integrity and enthusiasm!In my past life time I used to be a CGI and VFX artist for over 13 years, working in the Advertising and Feature Film Industry. -Alastair
