In this fartleck of an episode, UltraRunning Magazine Editor-in-Chief, Amy Clark, dishes out some of the ultra goodies to be found in the October / November issue, which celebrates the ultrarunning community.
UltraRunning Magazine Podcast regular Jason Wagner joins the show once again to recap his latest 100-mile race, Cascade Crest.
Veteran ultrarunner Van Phan returns to the show and talks with Scotty about joining the 100 x 100 club after a win at the Hamster Endurance Runs 32-hour race. They discuss how she got to this incredible milestone, what keeps her going and how she has stayed healthy over years.
In July 2023, torrential rainstorms caused catastrophic flooding throughout the state of Vermont, resulting in the cancellation of the Vermont 100. Scotty sat down with Vermont 100 race director, Amy Rusiecki, to find out how volunteers and runners came together and turned a heartbreaking natural disaster into a different kind of endurance event by helping the local community.
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.
