Western States 100 Predictions, Pursuing Passions, and Strava Thoughts - The Monthly Long Run

We’re joined by thru-hiking legend, ultra athlete, and endurance coach, Jeff Garmire on this episode for another Monthly Long Run, where we ramble about all things hot in the ultrarunning world.

And in this episode, we dive into the big daddy of all US ultra races: Western States 100. In this episode, Jeff and I share our top picks for the race, our predictions and hot takes, and some of our commentary on the most interesting storylines out there.

We also dive deep on philosophical topics outside of Western States, such as not worrying about what other people think on Strava, chasing our big dreams and lessons learned from it, and how to find enjoyment in the process of doing hard things.

Huge thank you to Jeff for co-hosting this episode with me!
