Western States 2022 Golden Ticket Winner Ellie Pell joins us once again for a spirited blow-by-blow recap of her second place finish at the Bandera 100k last week and we are beyond psyched for her. Hear how she came from 15 minutes back to secure herself not only a podium spot but a coveted spot in this year's WS100. Hear how she goes into scary situations by using positive self-talk, and her fearless approach to competition.

"I wanted to see where us east coasters would stack up against the west coast" she says as she makes us all proud.
