We chat about how her background in strength and multiple sports helped shape the runner she is today, the fun of pushing your boundaries and the excitment of not knowing how fast she can actually get.

I had the pleasure of chatting with Nicole a few days before she was named to Team Canada for the World Mountain & Trail Championships this September in Spain. Nicole started running competitively when she walked on to the University track team. After finsihing law school, she found the trails and has become a force to be reckoned with in distances up to 50km. Trigger warning - Nicole opens up about dealing with an eating disorder, and how to navigate training, nutrition, and mindset.

Madeline grew up an ocean kayaker, figure skater, and wrestler before she found the trails. She was quickly hooked and signed up for her first stage race when she recieved the news that her  21-year-old sister had died by suicide. Trails became her soul-search as she moved through grief, and the awe of the outdoors helped her believe that there was still so much “good” in the world, even though she experienced so much “bad”. We talk about how she worked through her 20's, eventually landing at her ultimate stage race - Marathon des Sables.

Amélie is a talented runner and overall athlete, but the thing that stands out the most is her understanding of what it takes to complete an ultra. She’s learned exactly what it means to be a pacer and a crew member and has become an integral part of many successful races for her friends. We talk all things crewing, including how to set up your team and how to tell the difference between normal ultra pain and when it’s time to pull the plug.
