Ms. Monday Jones | BDSM and Ultramarathons

Let’s finish up 2018 with something different, shall we? Ultras and trail running are two sports that normalize all of us…we all step up to the same line and finish in the same place, but often times our fellow competitors are coming from all over the place. Doctors, hippies, CEOs, rock stars, you name it. We’re all part of the big ultra tribe.

Ms. Monday Jones is part of this tribe, and comes from a profession that has some overlap with our sport. She’s a professional BDSM dominatrix who describes herself as a sadomasochist and as someone who’s searching for limits and is comfortable in the outer reaches of her own.

In this episode, we talk openly about what it is she does for a living and where the parallels may lie with running. How does a dominatrix handle pacing, for example? She considers herself a sex worker…what does that mean? Does pushing her limits on the trails have an erotic component? And the basic…what did she learn at Zion 100 last year that she’ll take into her next big race in 2019?

This obviously a NSFW episode where we cover adult material, but I’m hoping that you find we did so in a respectful way. I’ll admit to being well out of my wheelhouse with this interview, but on reflection, I learned a lot about what she does and why it is we do what we do.

Mark this down as the first time I’ve posted a picture of a guest taking a bong hit out of a giant phallus.
