In this episode, Patrick Reagan and I discuss so much for the year ahead. From training to recovering to the mental aspects needed to go through the Grand Slam (or running in general). Grab a pen and paper and get ready to take some notes. Lots of takeaways form this one for any runner! Thank you Patrick!

That escalated quickly! I'm trying to make it possible to go for the Grand Slam of Ultra Running! With my registration for Western States already complete, I decided to try to make the rest of the races in the Grand Slam a reality. In doing so, I've secured a charity spot raising funds for the Vermont Adaptive (http://www.vermontadaptive.org/about-us/). I'm in the process of trying to gain a charity spot for Leadville 100 by raising funds for The Challenged Athletes Foundation (https://www.challengedathletes.org/mission-and-history/). I've registered for the Old Dominion 100 as a possibility if things fall through for Leadville.
I'd like to thank all that donated to Vermont Adaptive to help me reach my fundraising goal, but it's not done. I'd like to continue to raise funds for them!
Please consider donating to The Vermont Adaptive through my fundraising page - https://www.pledgereg.com/357957
Thanks to the following for their donations:
Mike, Andrew, Brendon, Nathan Rafaela, Terra, Chris & Paula, Blanche, Nancy, Moe & Mercedes, Trish, & Tammy. Thank you!
As soon as I have the Challenged Athlete Foundation spot confirmed, I will set up the fundraising page and share that information!

Not only is Jesse Fuller an experienced ultra runner, he is outstanding at what he does. Through his screening, Jesse will recognize where we lack strength and mobility and prescribe a regiment that will help us either return to running or keep us running healthy and strong. Let me be clear, Jesse does not diagnose injury, just help us return from an injury that has already been predetermined by a medical professional. Learn more in this episode.
