Laura Rollins has had the Western States 100 as a bucket list race since 2017 when she first entered the lottery. Finally her chance came this year, and I was so stoked to follow her on the live stream and tracking whenever I got the chance. When I saw her cross the finish line, I was so incredibly proud of her, and I immediately wanted to know every detail of her experience. That sit-down happened about a week later, and now I get to pass it on to you! What a powerful woman Laura is, and what an epic race of ups and downs she waded through. I loved our time together. She really made me want to do this race! Thank you, Laura!Laura's Mental Performance Consultant: Marisa Romeo (https://www.marisaromeo.com/coaching)Running Coach: Aaron Saft (https://www.runningislife.run)Laura's Instagram: @lrollrunsLaura's Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/7695708Following Facing Vert on Instagram! @facingvertThank you for listening!

Special guest joins to debrief the legendary Western States Endurance Run one week after the 100.2 mile traverse of California's Sierras. After several years in person at the event, we draw on our experiences and observations to comment on some notable elements. As the "Kona" of ultra running, it only seemed appropriate to juxtapose Western States with the Ironman World Champs. 

Join hosts Coach Loretta and Coach Lindsay from Ornery Mule Coaching as they welcome athlete Russell Stratton to the Dirt Podcast. In this candid conversation, Russell shares his experience at the Western States Endurance Run, where he faced the tough reality of a DNF (Did Not Finish) after missing the cutoff at the Last Chance aid station. Together, they explore the challenges of race day, the mental and emotional toll of not finishing, how even elite athletes struggle with their own hurdles and the lessons learned from setbacks in endurance sports. Russell opens up about his training journey, the significance of his crew and the importance of mental resilience. Tune in for an insightful discussion about perseverance, vulnerability, and the support of the running community as they navigate the highs and lows of the sport. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting out, this episode is packed with valuable insights and inspiration.

We can't seem to get enough of John Kelly's FKT attempt on the Appalachian Trail, and we shared a few final thoughts about it before he finishes in the next couple of weeks.

Kilian JORNET está preparando la Western States Endurance Run, una carrera muy "corredera" y habitualmente muy calurosa. Es corredera porque apenas tiene 30m+ por cada km longitudinal: un total de 5200m+ para 160K. De hecho, el récord masculino de 14h09 supone correr a un ritmo promedio de 5'00/km. En cuanto al calor, cabe decir que la Western es "el laboratorio de pruebas" de las estrategias de adaptación al/ mitigación del calor de las carreras de montaña. Muchas cosas que se vienen viendo en ciclismo desde hace tiempo se empiezan a aplicar a carreras de montaña en la Western. Y, curiosamente, ni los perfiles correderos ni los ambientes calurosos se le dan bien a Kilian. De ahí que esté teniendo que implementar un régimen de entrenamiento muy específico y que requiere mucha disciplina. Ésas son las dos características del entrenamiento de Kilian que analizamos aquí y las dos lecciones que sacar del mismo y que, quizás, trasladar a nuestro entrenamiento. --- Si quieres apoyar este podcast, sígueme en https://www.instagram.com/correrporsenderos/ Puedes mandarme un MD por ahí y plantear dudas o sugerencias.

Some composers picture colors or abstract shapes when they're working on a new piece. Derrick Skye thinks about space. His fascination with the cosmos is threaded throughout his compositions, including the latest in his series "Prisms, Cycles, Leaps." For our series on California composers. reporter Clare Wiley sat down with the Los Angeles-based Skye to hear how he brings his otherworldly ideas to life and how living in multicultural LA has influenced him.   Plus, we go to the oldest 100-mile ultramarathon in the world: The Western States Endurance Run. This grueling race starts near Lake Tahoe and winds along old mining trails in the Sierra, drops into the canyons of the American River, and finishes outside Sacramento. Thousands of people are on the waitlist to attempt it, but just a fraction make it to the starting line. The runners who do compete are overwhelmingly white, even though the race is trying to include more BIPOC athletes. KQED's Mark Nieto got to watch this year's race at the end of June and he followed one competitor who's inspiring other runners of color.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Women's ultrarunning is on fire right now with powerhouses like recent Barkley Marathons finisher Jasmin Paris, 40, and Lululemon FURTHER 6-day record smasher Camille Herron, 42, showing the world what midlife women can do. This week, we sat down with ultrarunning legend Pam Reed, who broke ground for women in the sport decades ago, winning races like Badwater 135 outright in 2002 and 2003, and talking about menopause at a time when athletes rarely uttered the word. Now 63, Pam is still blazing trails, most recently finishing the Hardrock 100, Badwater 135, and Western States Endurance Run–that's 337.5 miles total–in a span of 22 days. We talk all about how she gets it done, the hurdles she's faced, and what the future holds.Pam Reed has been a prolific ultrarunner since she entered the sport in 1992. She quickly excelled and won on the track, road, and trails. She is most well-known for her back-to-back Badwater 135 overall wins in 2002 and 2003. Over her career, she has at least 30 ultra wins, including 13 wins in races of 100 miles or more. In 2021, she became the 19th known person in the world to achieve 100 100-mile finishes with at least 45 podiums in those 100-milers. She has finished 65 full Ironmans, including 10 at Kona, Hawaii. In 2005, Pam authored the book, The Extra Mile: One Woman's Personal Journey to Ultra-Running Greatness.
