They explore the challenges of running in mountainous terrain and the impact of personal relationships on Kevin’s running journey. They also delve into the decision to run multiple 100-mile races in a year and the experiences of DNFs and podium finishes. The conversation highlights the importance of community and support in ultra-running. In this conversation, Bob and Kevin discuss the experience of running multiple races and the balance between FOMO and friendship. They recap recent races and delve into the mental struggles and challenges of ultra running. They also explore the importance of training, the role of supportive friends, and the joy of accomplishing difficult races. Kevin shares his upcoming race plans and the appeal of mountain ultras. They discuss the decision-making process in choosing races and the challenges of training for mountain ultras. The conversation concludes with a discussion of future podcast episodes and the upcoming Salt and Sea race (sic).

Bob and Sass have an upcoming 5K – maybe. Recovering after races. Bob’s next 50K and a realization of how little time he’s actually been running. The impact of hitting a goal – whether it’s a mile or 100 miles. What would we want out of a pacer? And Gio is going down at Badger.
