Brooks Bash got injured at mile 6 of a 300 mile race. It sounded ridiculous, but then he mentioned he just ran 100 marathons in 100 days in the months prior.
It puts the injury in perspective, but it also begs the question: what's the point of all this? Isn't this whole ultra world just spinning out of control?
I'm curious to hear with your thoughts on the topic. Drop them in the comments.

How Brooks still managed to finish this race, what learned from running 100 marathons in 100 days, and his motivation for getting into these crazy challenges is what we focus on in this one. -
Turning pro lands you in this funny place. It gives you both more time and pressure to train.
So, how do you make sure the pressure doesn't outweigh the time aspect?
Today, Alyssa shares how her eagerness to show herself as a pro backfired, how it lead to DNF'ing instead of shining, and what she learned from it.
I wish you an insightful episode.

Today we tried to talk about principle/provocation 3 in our 4 part series…but we didn't get to it.
Instead of talking about the potential of running free from "assumptions", we got carried away talking about how to apply the "no judgement" and "no expectations" principle.
Enjoy the episode.

4 years ago she wasn't even running. This year, she finished the TSP solo, running 480km through the desert. And she got sponsored doing it.
This is a conversation on mental resilience, building leverage with brands through social media, and me asking shamelessly for tattoo advice.
Enjoy the episode.

How not to gain weight when lifting as an ultra runner. It's just one of my main concerns as I'm hitting the gym more often.
It's actually not, but I asked Ben (my current strength coach) anyways.
This one is for anyone trying to get stronger up and down those big slopes even though the closest mountain is thousands of km's away.

This is a conversation for those who want to live more openly and want to cultivate the courage to do the things that are important to them.

Get inspired by Max's non-nonsense approach to the sport and his raw honesty about his journey.

Earlier this year, Chris set out to be competitive in the Spine. But the race did not remotely go the way he expected.
Instead of getting the result he was after, he quit the race. Unknowingly the race had triggered a cocktail of unresolved stories & emotions and ended up leading into a panic attack.
2 months later, the dust has settled and integrated into a transformative experience.
It's an honor to have guests on the show with the courage to share as vulnerably as Chris.
The way he grew through and his perspective on the experience is inspiring.
I wish you an inspiring and insightful episode.

There's an art to DNF'ing. It doesn't have to have a bad aftertaste.
When done right it can be a transformative experience.
In this episode Patrick elaborates how he processed multiple DNF's in 2023.
Instead of feeling sorry for himself, he speaks from a place of accountability and growth.
It's a conversation that helps you put "failure" into perspective and feel more open towards taking on challenges.
I wish you a fun and insightful conversation.

I grew silent hearing everything Ari went through in his life. But the fact he went through all that and still sat there smiling was incredibly humbling and inspiring.
I initially invited him on the podcast because he was a monk at one point in his life. And I was curious how that experience translated to ultra running.
Turns out this was only a small part of our conversation. The man just had a lot of wisdom to offer. Not just on running, but also on how to live life.
Living/running with an open heart, the nonsense of putting pressure on yourself, the importance of compassion and empathy, and why we should stop judging people. These are just a couple of the themes we touched on.
It's another episode for anyone who wants to live and run more freely, compassionately, and openly. For anyone who wants to connect to the depth of our running experience and leverage running as a process of self-discovery.
Enjoy the episode.

Do goals help or hinder your spiritual growth through running?
In today's episode, we invite you into a specific relationship to goals and process. Goals as tools, not outcomes and process as a state of being.
We also expand on my current "goalless" situation, why I love it so much, and how I navigate my training process without goals.
In both cases we invite you turn within and notice how your relationship to goals and process make you feel and how it can bring you closer to yourself and life.
Enjoy the episode.

Today Nick & I share about our first training house experience in Girona. It was so much more beautiful than we had expected.
Nick also shares about his inner journey in recovering from injury. And I talk about my struggle to accept I don't have any race goals the way I'm used to.
We're looking forward to sharing more of these conversations where we give insight into our own journey before we tackle a specific topic* that helped us get to where we are today. Both as runners and human beings, living the life we do today.
We both wish you a warm and insightful episode.
Let us know if there's any questions you'd like to hear us answer or any topic you'd like to have us expand on.
*For example how we quit our engineering jobs, how we discover who we are and what we want, how we learn to tune out other people's opinions, how we learn how to be ourselves, how we train, how we set goals, what we still struggle with today…anything goes.
