Jake Jackson started out as a smoker who could afford to drop an extra 30 pounds and transformed himself into one of the best endurance runners on the planet!

He has competed for Team USA twice at the 24-Hour World Championships and after taking on the Black Canyons Ultras 100 Mile Challenge, he will be gearing up for the longest challenge of his life, the Cocodona 250 Miler in May.

Take us on your long run to hear Jake's inspiring story along with why he believes we can all benefit from not being afraid to try new things. Enjoy!
