Ultrarunning is an introspective sport and way of life for those who commit to the long haul. It conjures up the unrelenting pace of running-themed movies and inspirational music, but also encourages contemplation of human joy and suffering. Host Dr. Melinda Lewis runs through the topic with ultrarunner and Drexel University information science professor Dr. Tim Gorichanaz to discuss the myriad ways in which extreme running defines a person’s character, literary choices, and even playlists.
