The Story Behind Ben Mercer’s Mogollon Monster 100-Mile Finish - Episode 136

Thursday Sep 22, 2022

Thursday Sep 22, 2022

This is the 2nd time I've had Ben on the podcast, and the third time I've had his wife Allison on. They are both amazing people doing awesome things. The reason this episode came to light was because we didn't think Ben was going to line up less than 2 weeks from the start of the race. This is the story of how that came to be and how Ben found the finish line through all of it!

Both can be found on Strava under their respective names.

I start this episode with a short segment on Cross Country & how to get involved with your local team. In the 2nd segment, I speak on Relays, what they are, what to expect, and what to bring. Having just completed the Blue Ridge Relay with a 12 person team, this topic was fresh in my mind.

Estimating a Nutrition & Hydration Plan for Your Next Race - Episode 130

Thursday Aug 11, 2022

Thursday Aug 11, 2022

With Bigfoot 200 a few days away at the time of this recording, I figured it a good time to talk through how I put together my nutrition & hydration plan to know what to buy & estimate how much to purchase. I speak about how often and how much I plan to eat and drink based off current research, a breakdown of the different options I intend to use, and the gear I'll use in hopes of reaching the finish line at Bigfoot 200.
