Athlete Race Story: 1st 100 Mile UltraRun (plus tips for newbies!)


Listen Later

We're excited to bring your our first Athlete Race Story! Every athlete has a story to tell relating to their training and racing journey. We wanted to share Jay's story since his insight into ultrarunning is a wonderful blend of wisdom, newbie mistakes, storytelling, and modesty.Β 

Jay and Coach Chris met virtually during the pandemic in 2020. His goal was to race his first 100 mile ultrarun. Well, we're excited to say that HE DID IT! He also picked an incredibly difficult race, with the MST 100. Listen in as he talks about training during a pandemic (with a family), working through gear issues, dialing in his fueling and hydration plan, dealing with the running alone in the dark, meeting incredible people, and having an amazing adventure on 2 feet.Β
