In this episode, we begin with a short Q&A; with Valarie Neidig on her experience last year at Kara Goucher's Podium Retreat. As of the time of publishing this episode, there are still spots left for this year's retreat with Kara from October 18-20th. You can get more details and sign-up here: https://retreat.karagoucher.com/ I am told that you will not regret signing up if you can make it work for you! Then at 13:13 into the episode, we flip the script and bring on Sasha Gollish to interview me about my first 50-mile race on August 17th at the Squamish 50. We talk about my training and insecurities going into the race and then how the race itself went, plus bigger takeaways for the future. While I am generally not comfortable talking so much about my own pursuits, I do hope you find inspiration in my journey to completing this goal.
