James Wright set off for a new type of ultra adventure when he signed up for the Frozen Otter 100k held in Wisconsin in the middle of January.  We talk about the unique challenges he faced and how he would do things different next time!  Enjoy the call.

Emily thought she was the only one.  The coaches thought it was everyone?  So, who actually misses runs and how do we move on from these in the big picture of a training program?  We answer that and more on the show today!  Enjoy

Will is ready to see some results and Ellie reassures him they are coming.  Scott can't talk.  Enjoy the show following runners training for their first 50k!

Scotty Mills is a legend in the world of ultra running.  He took the time to deliver a speech about what the sport has done for him over the span of his life as a runner and race director.  If you believe in the power of community, you'll love this talk.  Thanks for listening!

Emily had a road trip as an adult child and shared that Becoming Ultra could possibly be a cult on first impression from some family members!  We talk about her running over the last couple weeks.   We talk early year goals for the masses and we throw out some more unique words to try and stump Ian and his English or British background!  It's a fun one!

The new year is here and we catch up with Will and his coach Ellie.  A double digit run coming up as well as a 6 hour running event.  We also dive into trail etiquette stories. Happy New Year and enjoy!

Emily is getting her training rolling in the first couple weeks of training for her first ultra in May of 2020. Ian catches us up on her progress and answers some common early training questions.

Will and Ellie catch up a bit.  Will asks about gear he needs.  Ellie learns a little about baseball.

Dave Mackey has had a most interesting career in endurance sports and it only got crazier in the last few years.  He shares his story of a fateful day on the trails near Boulder, Colorado at the Band Of Runners trail camp this past November. We know you'll enjoy!  Oh, you should go donate to this awesome organization while you are at it!

Kevin Dunn, of Las Vegas, was able to run his first 100 miler this fall. This call is a post race call with his coach to just chat about the experience and his recovery moving forward.  Enjoy!
