Merry Christmas from the team at Sweat Elite!

Our Christmas day release features Jim Walmsley - one of the greatest ultra-marathoners of all time. He has the 50-mile world record, and holds the course records at (among many others) UTCT 100km, Tarawera Ultramarathon, Lake Sonoma 50 and Western States Endurance Run 100 miler which he won for the third time this year.

This is Jim’s second appearance on the Sweat Elite podcast (first episode is #27). Our conversation delves into his last 18 months of racing and training. We discuss things that have changed in his approach to preparing for the wide variety of races he competes in, nutrition, race logistics, cross training, his race plans for the coming year and where he sees trail running heading. Jim took time out of a busy holiday season schedule to have this conversation a couple days out from Christmas, he gives lots of insight into what goes on behind the scenes for him to pull off the massive feats for which he is so renown.
