Tracey Peet joins us in the studio to break down her first 100-mile race.

Going from zero to a hundred, real fast.

We chatted about lessons learned from previous races and what she's going to take into this season. Then, we talk about her plan as she sets to tackle another 100-mile race: The (mad) Fat Dog 100.

We chat about gear, nutrition and what could be considered a potential maple syrup addiction.

Enjoy!

When it comes to health, fueling and general nutrition it's always helpful to talk to a professional. That's what we do in this episode, we learn strategies for fueling and also strategies for being kind to ourselves around food. We talk about the role food plays in our lives as fuel, nourishment, entertainment and sadly sometimes shame.

This week we shook things up!

We went for a team run, where Nick and I tried very hard not to ask any questions that might be podcast worthy.

I think the run helped our brains but somehow it hurt my vocabulary as you'll quickly find out.

Sit back and enjoy as we chat with Tom about what running means to him, his plans for the upcoming Golden Ultra and much much more!

See you on the trails!

Communication is key. Today we sit down and talk about where we're at, mentally, physically, with running, and with the podcast. We take the time to appreciate each other and talk about things we want to work on in the future. Sounds weird right, we thought so to but we showed up, sat down and shared and we are the better for it. Hopefully you will be too.

Emily Lindsay is an engineer by trade, an Ultra Runner by passion, and a volunteer firefighter. She wears many hats.

So, how does she balance a full-time job, her training goals, and the rest of her life?

In this episode, we cover a lot! From gear to nutrition to a very limited self-care routine.

We plan on having Emily come on a couple of times over the season to review her training and then get a play-by-play of her race at the Golden Ultra.
