UltraRunning Magazine Podcast

We sat down with 18-year-old Kaylee Frederick just one week after she became the youngest athlete ever to finish Badwater 135, one of ultrarunning’s toughest events. Kaylee joined the show to talk about her experience, lessons learned and the force behind her determination to run challenging races at such a young age.

In this new format, First & Last, we talked with two amazing women: Western States 100 first-place woman and female course record holder, Courtney Dauwalter, and the very last finisher, Jennifer St. Amand, who finished with just 21 seconds to spare.

The heat is on! And we’re not just talking about Courtney Dauwalter’s blazing wins at WS100 and Hardrock. Join us as we talk with Dr. Jason Wagner to explore the physiological challenges that runners face in the heat

In this episode, we bring Rebecca Joyner back on the podcast to chat with Scotty about her experience at Western States and her DNF. She talks about her battle with the snow on the course along with the amazing volunteers.

Join us as we take a deep dive into the pages of our special July / August issue which features a captivating celebration of the profound experiences we encounter on the trails. From the importance of trail work and groundbreaking research to the mesmerizing stories of endurance and connection, this issue encapsulates the essence of ultrarunning.

UltraRunning Magazine’s newest endeavor happens to be the Tamalpa Headlands 50k and who better to guide us through the details than race director Jeffrey Stern? He sheds a little light on the exhilarating course located in the Marin Headlands in California.
