Lucy Bartholomew went from running with her dad at age 15 to finishing on the top of the podium at some biggest ultras around the globe, all while setting course records in the process. 

Not surprisingly, her travel, training and race schedule keeps her pretty busy so it has taken almost a year of trying to get Lucy on the show, but with some luck we are able to have her here today to talk about her strategies and tactics on staying healthy, and recovering effectively while training for ultra-marathons. 

No one can clock the times and distances Lucy does without riding the fine line between training and overtraining. Obviously she knows how to get the full benefit of her training sessions by effectively recovering. 

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we are talking with Lucy Bartholomew about the strategies she uses to recover quickly after an Ultra before she resumes training for the next event.
