In this episode, I got the pleasure of interviewing Brianna Santos. She's new to the ultrarunning scene, but I think you're going to be seeing a lot more of her.

In her first 50-miler - the American River 50 - she got 5th overall female and 4th in her age group.

We sit down to chat about everything training, nutrition, time-management, pacing, and weird encounters on trails.

Enjoy!
