On this episode we have the amazing Cynthia Heady. It was an honor and a blast getting to hear so many stories of her adventures, as well as the history of some of the local races here in Kentucky. Not only has she excelled in directing races but also running them, having ran over 77 races and still going with an upcoming 100 miler. Cynthia & her husband Todd have done so much for the endurance community here in Louisville and the surrounding areas with their company, Headfirst Performance.

From marathon to Ultra:
Conner Parsons is our guest this week and we got into the transition from road to trail/ultra running, as well as his big performance at Leadville 100, going sub 24 for his first 100 miler. Though he is humble about his road performances, Conner excelled on the road, running a sub 2:40:00 marathon at Chicago. Since then he has captured an overall win at Land Between the Lakes for the 50 miler, placed second at Mohican 50, and 2nd at Lake Martin 50.

On today's episode of The Ultra Running Experience, I had the honor of interviewing the great Jonathan Castrejon, an elite mountain athlete from Utah. In his most recent race, Jonathan placed 2nd @crazymountainultra which boasts 23,000 ft of vert gain for the 100 mile distance. The course is special in that it travels through multiple cattle ranches, is ran by a cattle rancher, and goes through the indigenous lands of the Apsaalooke.
Although he came in second, Jonathan accomplished what he set out to do, which was to break the previous course record. Through this podcast you get to see a lot of the philosophies and ideas that Jonathan has in regards to Ultra running, which makes it a great listen. Jonathan dives into how Ultra running is not what his identity is tied up in but how it is a tool to better his overall self. I really enjoyed this conversation and hope that yall will too. -
