What drives someone to push their physical and mental limits in ultrarunning? Join me, Richard Gleave, as we explore this compelling question and uncover the deeply personal motivations that fuel our community. Hear from the Choose to Endure community as they share how faith and camaraderie in the trail ultra community become lifelines in overcoming personal challenges. Discover the unique blend of support and friendship that turns daunting races into journeys of growth and resilience.

In this special bonus episode of Choose to Endure, we delve into the hearts of our fellow runners. Garrett Frederick demonstrates resilience for himself and bravery for his daughter, while Stephen Dense finds self-worth after a challenging marriage. Listen to Lisa Decker speak about the transformative power of community on the trails, and Wendy Peters confront her fears head-on. Insights from Reddit users like Commonplace User and TheBravestChicken add to this tapestry of motivations. As we continue our journey, let's remember to support each other, keep pushing our limits, and always find our why.
