Listen "Extraordinary People: Olga Laque and Rustie Johnson"
Episode Synopsis
Two of my San Antonio Off-Road-Running friends joined me this week to talk about completing their first 100K (62 miles).
What sets this effort apart from others is that they tackled it under extraordinary conditions: extreme water, mud and roots.
Huntsville State Park, on a good day, is challenging with its crazy tree roots cluttering the trails.
This one sounded insane: knee-deep water in sections, wet feet and MUD.
We talk about their experiences and background.
Plus, I recount a fairly epic cold/windy 10K I signed up for on a whim and lived to talk about it.
Oh, and here is my playlist.
