My podcast guest this week is Shaun Bemis. He is a soon-to-be retired Naval Special Warfare Leader, and ultra-runner. He joined the service the day after the attacks of 9/11 and he worked in Navy Intelligence, giving support to special forces operations. Shaun jumped into ultra-running without the “typical” progression of shorter races to half-marathon to marathon then ultramarathon. When he didn’t get in the lottery for the New York City Marathon, he decided an ULTRAmarathon was more impressive anyway.

Ep. 72 : Sugar Sand Ultra - Shaun Bemis

Trail runners talk freely about almost anything while we're out running. The stories we share can be deeply personal, embarrassing, and profound . . . and sometimes all of these qualities rolled into one.

One thing we have in common is a drive to keep moving forward. "Relentless forward progress" is the advice given to anyone trying to run their first ultramarathon. No matter what happens, keep moving forward until you finish or can't go any farther.
Some people say that life is a marathon not a sprint. But I think life is an ultramarathon. 
The stories you will hear on this podcast should inspire you to go after your own epic adventures and keep moving forward to your goals.

The early episodes of this podcast were recorded on a weekly Facebook LIVE at The Ultramarathon Mindset Facebook page.
