October 09, 2023 Dom Fusco on Tips to Improve Health to Improve Your Ultrarunning and Life
In early August, Dominic Fusco and his crew went to a local track to record their mile times. Although being a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach with two marathons and an ultra under his belt, Dom collapsed on the track and went into cardiac arrest. Thankfully, he was able to get necessary medical attention and recover.

Today, Dom shares how his cardiac arrest experience helped him gain a better perspective on life. As a fitness content creator and mental health advocate, I was intrigued to chat with Dom and hear all of his insights, including how to avoid burnout and principles for living a healthy life - both mentally and physically.

Huge thank you to Dom for coming on the show!

October 02, 2023 Hilary Ann Yang on Finishing Strong in an Ultra, Finding Joy, and Training with a Busy Schedule
What makes a great runner? A runner who loves it and enjoys themself out there. Sometimes, it’s easy to get caught up in training and forget the reason why we started this sport. In this episode, I chatted with Hilary Yang about rediscovering joy in running. Tapping into this joy of ultrarunning and embracing the lows led to Hilary’s strong finish at IMTUF 100.

Hilary is an award-winning content creator, which includes photography, graphic design, writing, videography, and being a creative director. On top of all this, she is an outstanding ultrarunner, so I was stoked to hear her take on training amidst a busy schedule, along with lessons learned from when High Lonesome did not go as planned last year. Hilary had a ton of intriguing insights from her personal experiences as an athlete and also from behind the camera at several ultra events - this episode is not one to miss!

Huge thank you to Hilary for coming on the show!
