I pulled one of my most popular episodes from the Everyday Running Legends podcast.\nThis episode I had the pleasure of interviewing John Kelly, the 15th person to ever complete the infamous Barley marathon before its 60-hour cut-up time. \nThe Barkley Marathons is an ultramarathon trail race held in Frozen Head State Park near Wartburg, Tennessee. The full course is 100 miles (160 km). The race is limited to a 60-hour period.\nWe dive into John's physical and mental training to prepare for such a grueling feat. We talk about his previous failed attempts and how he turned in all around.  \nClick here to find the Run Smarter App on IOS or Android \n You can also support the podcast for $5AUD per month and interact with the podcast on a deeper level by visiting our patreon page\nYou can also click here for our smarter runner facebook group","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/yu6CIQL0sKEEn32UMHvSGj80p9Ns_xcjLGp-EWyJlqQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM5ODgwLzE2Nzkw/MTQzMTYtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
