Coaches Ian Sharman, Scott Jones, Lindsay LaForce, and Addie Bracy get together to talk about the upcoming Season 15 for Becoming Ultra. Season 15 will be held at the Grindstone Trail Running Festival in Virginia in September. If you are ready to run your first ultra, consider applying for the newest offering from Becoming Ultra. You won't be disappointed!
Amanda is cruising through some long efforts on the trails and getting more comfortable in her new running surroundings. Addie brings some wisdom to call about race as a celebration of the training and accessing your best at any moment. It's been a great ramp up to Amanda's first ultra. Hope you enjoy! Season 15 is taking applications now!
We have found an amazing race partner for the next season of Becoming Ultra. We are headed back east for epic trails and memories in the mountains of Virginia. On the show today we have the founder and RD of the Grindstone Trail Running Festival by UTMB, Clark Zealand. As a collegiate runner, Clark started his ultra running journey in the late 90's. It led to him eventually starting the Grindstone 100 miler. He talks about his own running journey, the Grindstone course and history, and the area as we pain a picture of the partner race for Season 15. If you or someone you know wants to train for and run your first 50k, applications are live now.
