  • This week on the Dirt and Vert Podcast, we had the pleasure of chatting with ultra runner David Sullivan. David's journey in the ultra world is nothing short of inspiring, and he shared some incredible insights with us. We talked about his evolution from casual runner to podium finisher, and how gratitude and community have played a huge role in his success. David also emphasized the mental side of racing – how important it is to stay focused and resilient when the going gets tough. Of course, we couldn't forget about the physical challenges of ultra running! David dove into the importance of nutrition, hydration, and having a solid support crew, especially in those grueling 100-mile races. But it's not just about crossing the finish line. David opened up about the personal growth that comes with pushing your limits and facing those challenges head-on. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting out, David's story is a powerful reminder that we're all capable of achieving incredible things.
