Welcome back to the second episode of BUCKLE UP: An Ultrarunning Conversation. This week, Simon and I chatted with our friend Mark Bauer. Mark has been an Ultra enthusiast and participant for more than 15 years, completing notable races like Leadville Bike and Run 100's, Tushers 100k, SilverRush 50, and Grand Mesa 50 where he achieved 5th place overall in 2022. Recently, Mark conquered the Tahoe 200 and the Javelina Hundred.

In this episode, we delve into various topics including Black Canyon, the unfortunate passing of Kiptum, a drug test mishap, and address queries in the “Coaches Corner”.

Thanks for listening!
