Tim Gaudet talks with local WMass runner Ericka Emerson about her impressive ultra running and her experience at the Leadville 100, a 100 mile trail race through the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Ericka is also an accomplished marathoner, but had a scare when she collapsed during the 2009 Philadelphia Marathon due to a congenital heart defect, and was in a hypothermic coma for several days. Fortunately, the corrective surgery was successful, and Ericka has made a triumphant return to marathon running. Tim also provides an update of running events.
