This week on the HappyCast, we sit down once again with Regina Massingill, fresh off of her Big Bend 100 FKT and HURT 100 performances, as the Year or the Women pt. II (or is it III or IV) continues! 

Regina talks us through becoming the first person to successfully run through Big Bend, both the rugged and remote State Park, and the vast and mountainous National Park, in a journey that spanned over 110 miles, countless amounts of route finding, bushwhacking, survival, bouldering, and other unexpected surprises. Hear about how her FKT experience was both a lot longer and harder than she expected, but also rewarding and euphoric. We also hear from the crew perspective about the challenges of such a daunting experience, with Andrew proclaiming it was the hardest crew experience to date. 

We also briefly hear about Regina’s HURT 100 experience, with an amazing performance that also proved to be nail-biting, as her finish came down to the wire. But that’s not it - Regina also has some more epic challenges coming up in less than a week! 

So sit back, or run one out as we learn about Regina’s epic experiences over the last few months. Special shoutout to her crew during these events: Kenneth Anderlitch, Roel Gonzalez, her parents, and Kathleen Hanley.
