Kathleen is an adventurer!  She’s hiked some amazing places all over the world.  She also has had the opportunity to run some great races.  Most recently, she won the Bigfoot 200 having done a large portion of her training by bagging 14ers and having a blast doing it!

Sometimes, we've got to evaluate and backtrack.  And there's nothing wrong with that!

I share a bit of my personal struggle on this one......and my plan...I'll be back!

We get to talk about so many things in the podcast!  

After years of fighting sciatic nerve pain, Meghan began to search for the reason behind it and a natural way to fix the problem.  She’s now pain-free and has become a Functional Movement & Ultrarunning Coach.  She’s run all the distances pain-free including the Tahoe 200 last year.  Meghan is also a podcast host of the “She Runs Ultras” podcast.  Right now she’s been focusing on helping women run their first 50K.  Her goal is to help 10,000 women run their first 50K in the next 5 years and she’s developed a program dedicated to that purpose.

Are you living...or just surviving?

Are you alive...or just existing?

Find what makes you come alive.  And run hard after it!

Julie Hromadka lives here in Oklahoma and has been crushing her races.  I’ve had the privilege to coach her through some of 2022 and for her first 100-mile race at the Lake Murray Endurance Run.  Julie is a bundle of positivity and always encourages others.  She has the desire to see other women on the trails and has started group runs for women in her area to introduce ladies to the trails.

Mid-Week Motivation - Practice what you preach!  In running....and in life.

Listen in as I got to know Eric Whittington and Brent Ransom with URultra.   I love the story of how this all came together.  If you don't know, URultra is a veteran-owned company that focuses not only on providing race directors and runners with a quality race registration platform but also on giving back to the community as a portion of every race registration goes to charity.  Check out their slick site!
