The transformation of Barry Main from snowboarding instructor in the German Alps to 100 mile race winner

Barry Main is a beast!

So, it’s apropos that he won the 2022 Winter Beast of Burden 100 Mile only sixteen months after running his first ultra. 

Hear Barry explain how he transitioned from snowboarding to ultra running.  We also talk about some of his early ultras, his smashing of my Cumberland Valley AT Rim To Rim To Rim unsupported Fastest Known Time record, and of course, his epic win at the Winter Beast of Burden 100 miler in northern NY.

We finish up by talking about Barry's aggressive ultra-running plans for the remainder of 2022.
