Listen Later

Have you considered what it might take to complete a 200-mile race in treacherous mountain terrain? Grab your running poles and join us for a deep-dive with our guest, Jason Hanley; experienced ultra runner and co-owner of Wildsense all-natural endurance athlete body products, who shares his personal experiences and strategies to tackle the formidable Bigfoot 200-miler.  Not only does Jason provide an intimate breakdown of his preparation for this epic race, he also highlights the physical and mental fortitude it takes to tackle such an extreme challenge.

As we journey through the expansive world of ultra marathons, we have a heart-to-heart with our guest about the reality of running over 40,000 feet of vert and the peace of running in solitude.  Listen closely as Jason shares his unique strategies, including sleep plans, pacing, and staying calm under pressure.  This isn't just about physical endurance - it's a testament to the power of the mind, the ability to stay composed in the face of discomfort, and the necessity of having a strong support team.

Finally, we take a leap from the race track to the business world, drawing parallels between the challenges of ultra races and launching a company.  Jason shares insights into training for a 100-mile race versus a 200-mile race, and discusses the critical role of rest and nutrition. Not forgetting the entrepreneurial spirit, we highlight the value of community support and a positive mindset.  So, whether you're an avid runner, a budding entrepreneur, or someone seeking motivation, remember to run long, run strong, and choose to endure.  Tune in to this eye-opening episode!
