In this episode Troy Meadows talks with Mail Noyes of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Mali Noyes shares her journey as a dual athlete, excelling in both freeride skiing and ultra running. She discusses her upbringing in Sun Valley, Idaho, her transition from Nordic skiing to freeride competitions, and the balance she finds between her nursing career and her athletic pursuits. Mali emphasizes the importance of loving the process of training and the perspective her nursing career provides, especially when faced with the challenges of ultra running. 

In this conversation, Mali Noyes shares her experiences in ultra running, particularly focusing on her journey through various races, including Speed Goat and CCC. She discusses her training methods, the challenges she faced during races, and the mental barriers that come with endurance sports. Mali also reflects on her background in skiing and how it influences her approach to running and mountain challenges. They also talk about the WURL, a Salt Lake Route developed by the icon Jared Campbel that links all the peaks that circle Little Cotton Wood Canyon. 

Mali Noyes discusses her journey as an athlete that works on two sports: backcountry skiing in the winter and ultra running in the summer, the importance of coaching and community support, and her venture into content creation. They discuss her new youtube channel, The Mali Channel, and she emphasizes the need for athletes to build their personal brand and control their media presence in today's digital age. The discussion also touches on the challenges of authenticity in content creation and the importance of consistency in achieving success.Mali’s
