65 - Ross Ward Runs the Miner 49er!

44 minutes

Ross Ward recently finished his first 50k race at the Miner 49er in Iowa!

I've been coaching Ross for a few months and watching his journey of improvement has been a pleasure. It's been my honor to coach him and I'm really glad he agreed to chat with me on the podcast to discuss what he learned about training and nutrition in preparation for his first 50k race.

Hope you enjoy it!

Notes:

What Ross learned from doing the race

The importance of support and community

Understanding nutrition

Building a metabolism

Finding connection to muscles

Coming to running from basketball

Getting a coach

Remembering the accomplishment over the pain

What's next?
