Description
Spotify episode notes:
Recorded the night before my Backyard Ultra, this is one of the most personal episodes I’ve recorded.
We talk about becoming a Spartan, earning Elite status for 2027, the possibility of a World Championship start line, and the reality of stepping into a race that means far more to me than distance or time.
Tomorrow was 4.167 miles, every hour, on the hour, for as long as I can continue.
But this episode is really about everything I’m carrying onto that start line: the highs, the setbacks, the growth, the pressure, the people who matter, and the parts of myself I’ll have nowhere to hide from when it gets dark.
We also cover pacing, nutrition, crew strategy, 24 hours, fear, failure, and what 4.167, WE GO AGAIN has come to represent.
Tomorrow isn’t just about how far I can run.
It’s about finding out what’s left when everything else is stripped away. ❤️⚔️
