About this listen

She Runs Ultras is about (yup, you guessed it) running ultras. Lots of other running podcasts out there are full of gear & race reviews and interviews with the experts telling unrelatable stories about their record breaking times and super human feats. Now…don’t get me wrong, I’ve learned some great stuff from those podcasts...But what about those of us that aren’t getting paid to do this?Those of us that are mid to back of the pack runners?And those of us that have never won a damn thing? What was out there for us? Yeah, I couldn’t find it - so I decided to make it! And it just so happens that I’m getting geared up to start training for some races in 2021. So throughout this series, I’ll share what really happens when a typical, non-professional runner takes on the challenge of running an ultra. Got some races planned for this year? Let’s train together.From the emotional & physical ups and downs, to the details of my actual training plan, and the excitement (not to mention nerves) that build as race day gets closer...I promise not to hold anything back. So whether you’re already a member of the ultra community or if you’re just ultra curious...Hit subscribe and let’s do this!© 2025 She Runs Ultras Hygiene & Healthy Living Running & Jogging Social Sciences

  • Ep. 279 - The "C" Word 😁
    Jun 27 2025

    In this episode we're talking about the "C" word of ultra running...2 of them actually.

    They are: Countdown & Consistency.

    We'll talk about the importance of both, how they are intertwined, and why they are crucial to your ultra running success.

    I'm also sharing some of what the She Runs Ultras Crew has been up to and what we're planning for 2026 (and how you can get in on the action!)

  • Ep. 278 - Drummer Hill 50k Recap
    Jun 20 2025

    In this episode, I recap my day at the rainy, rocky, and rooty Drummer Hill 50K—a small, looped trail race in New Hampshire with surprise crew support, soaking wet trails, and a whole lotta mud. I break down each lap, from smooth sailing in lap one to survival mode in lap four (spoiler: it rained *a lot*). We talk slippery bridges, mental battles, perimenopause aches, and why this race was all about practicing—not racing. Plus, a shoutout to bug spray, quesadillas, and the power of showing up.

  • Ep. 277 - The Walk / Run Gradient
    Jun 13 2025

    At the gym the other day, someone asked me:
    “Got any advice for a fat guy who wants to start running… asking for a friend?” 😄

    That sparked a convo about something I always teach runners—whether you’re training for your first 5K or your first 100-miler:

    👉 Start with walking.
    👉 Build from there.
    👉 Use the Walk/Run Gradient.

    In this episode, I’m breaking down my favorite strategy for building endurance without wrecking your body in the process. We’re talking about:

    • Why walking workouts absolutely count
    • What people get wrong about “time on feet”
    • How to use the walk/run gradient to level up safely
    • Why this applies to every distance, from 5K to 200M

    This is the foundation I use with clients inside my She Runs Ultras coaching membership—and honestly? It works at every level.
