Ep 26: 100 Miles, Countless Lessons - The Ultra Running Experience, with Matt Leocha


Listen Later

Run coach Dr. Michelle Quirk sits down with ultra marathoner and physical therapist Matt Leocha to uncover the wisdom gained from running 100-mile races. As Matt puts it, “I picked a hundred miles because it was a nice round number.” But there’s nothing ordinary about the insights he shares - from the importance of listening to your body to embracing the journey, not just the finish line.

This episode will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe even inspire you to take on your next challenge - whatever the distance!

A few key takeaways from Matt:

Practice does make perfect.
Listen to your body.
Build a strong support system.
Enjoy the process.

Tune in for a conversation full of endurance, resilience, and the joy of the run!
