After a brief pause for station identification, we're back! It's been awhile since the last episode due to some life changes. Today's episode details my experience running the Moab Red Hot Ultra, the 55k race, produced by Mad Moose Events. It's a fun course in a gorgeous location--truly, one of my favorite places to explore in North America. I go through my race experience, the terrain, and decision to run the race. This episode also covers how to use an ultra as a supported long run. My training had slacked due to life circumstances and an unfortunate rib injury that limited both running and strength training. I chose this race to have fun, meet new people--and maybe make new friends--and to film it using my 360 camera. It was fun to go out and be part of the community, see the pride, joy, pain and relief on the faces of finishers, and remember that there are multiple reasons people run ultras. If this episode inspired you or you learned something, please consider sharing it with someone who will benefit. We're all here to help each other out when we can. A video compilation of my race is in the works, and will be available soon on my Instagram page and YouTube channel. You can always connect with me on Instagram @cactusmoose with questions, comments and guest suggestions.
