Have you ever had an ultra freak out?  You looked at your training and thought: "There's no way..."  I got an email from a listener a while back who was concerned about her ability to complete a 50k when (at the time she emailed me) couldn't run more than 5 miles at a time.  Here's what I told her:

If there's one thing that I've noticed about successful ultra runners, it's their ability to fight.  Fight through physical discomfort, fight through the ups & downs of training, and fight through fear and self doubt.  In today's episode, I'm going to share some thoughts, experiences, & observations that will help you develop this "must have" skill of fighting through.

I have been trying to get this lady on the podcast f-o-r-e-v-e-r!  Thankfully, she finally agreed and I know you guys are really going to enjoy this conversation.  I've been working with S'te for a year now and she's an amazing human.  She has served in the navy, raised 9 kids (and countless foster kiddos), and survived not one but 2 SCAD heart attacks....oh and did I mention that she's also run a bunch of ultras?!  Listen in as we discuss all this and more!

In this episode I'm chatting with newly minted ultra runner: Jodi Horon.  Jodi is a member of the She Runs Ultras crew and we've been working together for a few months now.  Although she's been a runner nearly all her life, only recently did Jodi consider doing an ultra...and when she puts her mind to something it's definitely getting done! 

Just a head's up: the audio for this episode is low so you're going to have to turn the volume up!

The temperatures here in the Northeast have been consistently in the 80's & 90's for about a month now, which isn't normal for us.  So, I've really had to "up" my game when it comes to running in the heat.  In this episode I'm sharing 6 simple strategies that will help you stay cool and avoid heat exhaustion (or worse, heat stroke!)  Plus, we're also going to talk about heat acclimation training...and at the end I go on a little rant 😆.  Enjoy!
