Episode 53: Randy Van Dusen - Surviving Shootings and Cancer to Finish The 2022 Western States Endurance Run


Listen Later

Randy Van Dusen just finished his tenth 100 mile race at the 2022 Western States Endurance Run.  But to get there, he has had to overcome cancer, a pulmonary embolism, and even an on duty shooting that nearly killed his police dog partner, Bodie.  But you won't find a more positive runner on the trails.  We talked about his running, his family, and even learned what NOT to do during your first ultra attempt (You mean I shouldn't eat 8 Taco Bell Bean Burritos?).  Check it out and see why Randy will always be one of our favorites.  Be sure to follow him at https://www.instagram.com/trail_sloth/ and enjoy the episode!
