Tara Dower is a professional ultra runner and thru-hiker who is making her fourth appearance on the podcast (see episodes #50 , #71, and #75). In August, Tara and her crew set the overall Fastest Known Time on the Long Trail, taking down my time and becoming the second person to run the Long Trail in under 4 days. We talk all about her record and more during this episode. Find Tara on Instagram @tara.dower. Find her podcast DNF Diaries wherever you get your podcasts!
