how did you get into the longer ultras?
The same way anybody gets into running! Starts with a mile. Then 5Ks. Eventually a full marathon. The main switch point for me was when the stress of hitting exact paces/places in races became too much. You can’t compare one trail mile to the next, or one 50K to another 50K. I am lucky to be surrounded by a lot of badass women who pursued 100-milers and helped guide me. When the opportunity came up, I had to try it. You never know how far you can go until you go there, ya know? And don’t we all like to get a little uncomfortable in the running space? 😊
