Grindstone 100 miler Champion. Top 10 finisher at the Pinhoti 100, Georgia Death Race, and, most recently, Leadville. Devoted friend of the running community. Shannon Howell joined us in studio this week for a discussion of the mental and physical aspects of her training for ultra trail racing, how she thrives as a mother, wife, teacher, and runner, and how she entered the grueling world of high-level ultra competition.

Shannon’s perspective will motivate runners aspiring to new heights—regardless of the terrain.
