Balancing Relationships with Ultrarunning with Melody and Jacob Bateman.

58 minutes

It’s no surprise that ultrarunning takes a ton of time to dedicate towards training, racing, and recovery. And sometimes, if left unchecked, the busy schedule of an ultrarunner can stray all of the other aspects of life away; including personal relationships. But, there are ways to stay on track with your training while also maintaining amazing personal relationships. And that is exactly what our guests cover today in our episode.

Today, we have on Melody and Jacob Bateman on the podcast! They are a married couple who are both ultrarunners, and often train and race with each other. They have completed an 100 mile race together, and share their tips and insights with other aspiring ultrarunners through their own podcast, The Trail to 100 Podcast.

In this episode, Melody and Jacob discuss how they are able to approach their own romantic relationship while maintaining their ultra training schedules, how they were able to complete their self-supported 100 mile race together, and tips on how you can crush your first 100 mile race (regardless if you do it with your partner or not)
