Tory Grieves did something most humans haven’t or can’t! She broke 15 hours on the challenging Pitchell 100k! That’s amazing for ANYONE! We discuss what is Pitchell, how she trained, what went right, and what went wrong. What a great conversation about one of the most revered finishes in Western North Carolina! Congrats Tory!

Emma had run four 100-milers prior to Georgia Jewel, but she had never run a 100-miler without the aid of crew and/or pacers. In this episode we break down how she prepared and how that went for her. Thank you Emma!

Julie Jordan is an amazing woman! Mom, wife, school teacher, and runner. She had never completed a 100-miler before, but lined up for the Yeti 100-miler in Damascus, VA to make the attempt. Julie was wonderful in sharing her journey leading up to and including the event. We go through how she prepared herself, her crew, and her pacers. We talk about mistakes and other issues and how they were remedied and how she hopes to be better prepared for future events. I hope you take away a ton from this episode, especially if you're looking to do your 1st 100-miler! Thank you Julie once again!

This episode is all about Crews. We talk about how to select crew members, what the runner should provide for the crew and what the crew should know and do. Here are my notes form the episode.

Ok with being in the woods, darkness, with the others you have chosen
