That's Runnable

Host Tommy speaks with Michelle Goldberg and Heidi Baker from the Let’s Run That Again Podcast to explore the world of ultra running, adventure, and race preparation. Both Heidi and Tommy are training for Devil’s Gulch 100 miler by Evergreen Trails in July, while Michelle is preparing for the monumental Cocodona 250.
The conversation covers the physical and mental challenges of ultra running, the problems with Strava culture, and the importance of maintaining a grateful mindset in endurance sports. They discuss training strategies, race-day expectations, and the highs and lows of pushing physical limits in long-distance events.

This episode offers valuable insights for trail runners, endurance athletes, and anyone fascinated by the mental resilience required for ultra distances.
