It's time to talk about our trip out to Western States Endurance Run. We'll dive into a little more detail about the race, crewing, our setup as a crew and more. This is a race that is near and dear to our hearts and one I'd highly recommend if you enjoy the sport of ultra running. You don't have to run it to enjoy this race either. You can head out and volunteer and take in all that is Western States Endurance Run.

This week we ran a wonderful local race called the T-Rex 10 Miler and it was SO much fun. This race is old school and no frills but has tons of fun and plenty of swag. If you are in the West Michigan area on July 4th we would highly recommend this event. If 10 miles is too much you can run "The Wimpy" 6k race. So there is fun for everyone.

We also talk about a little about Western States and the lead in days to the race. Talk about amazing! Love this race and this is one you can go and enjoy even if you don't have an entry. Go volunteer and cheer and take in all that is Western States Endurance Run.

Being one of the oldest 100 mile foot races in the world, the Western States 100 is very special. It has a lot of history starting in 1974. The race is now iconic for many reasons. What you get to experience while running or crewing the race is something you will not soon forget. Because it is so special, there are some hoops you need to jump through to get in. We discuss just what it takes to get to the starting line in this episode. For more info click the link below.

Let's just take a minute and strip it all back. Why do I need so many things to run? It shouldn't be this hard? Wait, I forgot this. I need two footpods to track this. My heart rate strap needs to be adjusted. All of these things and more are reasons to take a step back and evaluate where you are and what you actually need for your next run.

Also, we talk about another race. The Tulip Time 5k and 10k here in Holland Michigan. A really fun event with a great course and great people along the way.

We have another race for you to check out! This one is in New Hampshire and it's another fast downhill race. Put on by Revel Races, this is called the White Mountains Marathon and Half Marathon. Descending 2350 feet (for the full distance) helps you get that BQ or PR! Check out the race at the link below and consider signing up if you want a fun and fast north east race.

When life gets busy...we flex and adjust, so I'm on my own! I'm going solo...going it alone so to speak. So today you get to listen to a quick little shoe review for the Atreyu Base Trail. I love the simplicity of this running shoe company. No frills, just simple running shoes. However...listen and see if this holds true for trail shoes.
