Today I want to talk through a little bit of what has been going on with me mentally over the past month or so. Many have called it "post race blues" which man people feel after so many months leading into a big event and are left feeling a little lost.

Many have told me that I am going through post race blues coming off the Javelina Jundred but I think it is more detailed than that.

Let me know what you think and thank you always for listening!

This podcast will break down the 2024 Javelina Jundred 100! During this podcast I will start by answering a lot of questions that I had going into the race that I wish I could have had answered. Next I talk about the power of experience in this sport and how it saved me time after time throughout the day. I then go through each loop and how the day unfolded all the way up to the finish line. We finish with whats next and the mentorship for 2025 that can be found at www.50kready.com/50k

This week we are talking about the final weeks leading in the Javelina Jundred 100 Mile trail race in Arizona.

In this episode I break down how I have been preparing for the heat, primarily using the sauna.

I will also talk about how I am tapering for this race, my kit, nutrition, and race strategy.

I hope you enjoy.

This week is jam packed full of ultra marathon tips. I learned so much when I was training for Canyons, but this time training for Javelina Jundred has been one learning experience after another.

I want to talk the last few weeks of training and the high and lows that came and how I battled through the lows.

We end with a 6 Hour, as miles as you can run, race I ran today. I PRed my marathon and 50k to finish on the podium. Want to know how many miles? Oh, it's in there.

There is a lot to talk about this week. We are 8 weeks out from Javelina Jundred and base training is about to come to an end. With that I high some high milage as apart of my AT adventure hitting my first 100 mile training week ever. I do not plan to continue with this volume and I will talk about why. I also just race a 50k race in NJ wih 6,600 ft of vert. Lets talk about smashing that. We will finish off with what this weeks training looks like as I head back to work as summer comes to a close!

This week I took on the NJ Segment of the Appalachian Trail in the hopes of finishing it in less than 24 hours.

In this episode I will talk about that 24 hour adventure with my buddy Jake. Ill talk about the logistics of this trip, how we chose our direction, the things I learned, the unforgettable experiences I had, and how this works into my training for the Javelina Jundred in October.

July was an amazing month filled with a ton of adventure. I was blessed with the opportunity to crew and pace and two amazing summer ultra marathons. First I headed up to the White Mountains of New Hampshire to pace the Jigger Johnson 100 milers put on by white mountain endurance and aravipia! Then I hopped on a plane and headed out to Montana to crew the Crazy Mountain 100 with the boys from Recovery Strong. In this episode I will talk about my experiences at this race and which one I will most likely take on. I will end the episode by telling you about my next adventure coming this week!

In this weeks episode I will break down the entire week 1 of 16 leading in the sub 24 hour attempt at the Javelina Jundred. With a solid week of training behind me, I will also look ahead to week 2 which includes pacing the Jigger Johnson 100 miler for my buddy Ryan. As always, I will be taking any question you may have!
