Take one part mountain woman, one part 2nd grade teacher, one part fierce trail runner, add a gigantic smile and a positive attitude, and you get Stevie Kremer.  Sarah and I had a blast talking to this ball of energy from Crested Butte, CO about a wide range of topics that bounced all over the place. Enjoy.

 

* Stevie doesn’t like ultras, but prefers short, intense, and technical mountain races.  Why the hesitancy to move up in distance?

* What her students think of her running.

* How she trains for technical trails, and how she views her own abilities.

* The importance of skimo in her workout regimen.

* Why pilsners are awesome.

After the chat with Stevie, Sarah and I chat about her first 24 hour race (hint: she won it!), how she trained for it, what she thought about the experience, and whether we’ll see her competing in another timed event.

Episode Notes:
