Everyday Ultra

It IS possible to train for (and complete) a 100 mile race, even if you have an incredibly busy schedule in your life. And our guest today, Eric Socia, proves that is possible, as he recently completed the Run Rabbit Run 100 miler as his first 100, even while balancing a full-time job, raising kids, and being an amazing husband. In this episode, Eric shares how he was able to balance all of the priorities in his life while also making time to train, how he was able to pivot his schedule when needed (without losing fitness), and how he executed his first 100 mile race to get the finish.

Is it possible to run an ultramarathon with no prior background as a runner? Absolutely. And our guest today proves that - as she went from no running or endurance background and 100+ pounds obese to finishing multiple 50Ks in the top 10, completing the Leadville 100M Mountain Bike Race, and finishing her first 50 miler recently! You’ll hear from Christie Brinker on how she was able to transform her life through running, and what were the biggest keys to her success to go from non-runner to runner, while continuing to stay on the path consistently throughout her life. We chat about the most important mindset to have when training for an ultra, what key training strategies that are needed to make massive progress, misconceptions about training that people should avoid, and how to put together a plan that gets you ready for an ultramarathon. Christie is also a coach here at Everyday Ultra and is a UESCA Certified Ultrarunning coach who is committed to helping athletes crush their ultramarathon goals.

What does it take to have an amazing race in a type of terrain that is a different style from what you’re normally used to?  For Jeff Mogavero, an accomplished mountain ultrarunner for On Running, he looked to answer that question by racing in the Javelina Jundred 100 miler, just months after completing UTMB. And even though the flatter course was relatively unique territory for Jeff based on his past races, he was able to finish second place and win a Golden Ticket to Western States 100! How did he do it? In this episode he shares his training, race strategy, hydration strategy, and mindset that all led to his special day in the desert. We cover things such as: How to go from mountain training to flat training Optimizing mindset both in training and in the race How to nail hydration (even if it has been a struggle point in the past) How to execute a plan in a race, even when the conditions are tough How to enjoy the process amidst hard training Huge thank you to Jeff for coming on the show!
