Before we even get into it the race, we touched on the World Trail Majors that had been announced one day before this recording and when opportunity presents itself, well, you ask. So that's what we did. In today's show we are focusing on the Black Canyon 100k. The race takes place in February, in Arizona, and is a point to point race along the Black Canyon Trail. The trail is a mix of single track, jeep roads and parts of it are along an old stagecoach route. The race has more elevation loss than gain, with an elevation gain of 5190 feet and loss of 7050 feet over the 100k. Runners have 20 hours to finish, and if you want to make it your Western States qualifier, you have to get it done in under 17. Join us as we sit down with Jamil Coury, the Owner and CEO of Aravaipa Running as we talk all things Black Canyon! If you like the show, leave us a comment or rating to help others hear about it.

Matt and Paul Murray are twin brothers who have finished 4 of the 5 200 mile races that they have attempted. But before jumping into the Tahoe 200 in 2018, they had never raced more than a 5K...and to this day they have never tackled an ultra less than 200 miles. 🤔 Want to hear how they have done it and why?

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. Races can come in all different types of formats with varying distances, duration, and locations. Training for ultras often includes considerations for heat training, elevation, and altitude changes. But there are those gems out there that turn the equation around and challenge runners to the other extreme. Welcome to the world of cold. We'd like to introduce you to the Frigid Fox which takes place in January and is a 63 mile trek along the Ice Age Trail in Southeastern Wisconsin with an elevation gain of a little over 7000 feet. The race has a 24 hour cutoff which seems like a generous cutoff until you understand how harsh the weather can be in Wisconsin in January. Part of signing up for this race is that runners acknowledge an understanding that the weather can be unforgiving. That's what makes this race unique and one heckuva challenge we think. Join us as we sit down with Dustin Schmidt, the Race Director of the Frigid Fox to tell us all about it. If you like the show, leave us a comment or rating to help others hear about it. We appreciate you taking the time to join us.

Avery Matthews is one of the kindest human beings you will ever come across. She is also one of the toughest. We sat down with her shortly after her agonizing DNF at mile 99 of the Grindstone 100 and got a chance to see what makes her tick. To say it was inspiring would be a major understatement. Avery will just so happen to be hitting the course at the Rim To River 100 on the same day that this episode drops so give it a listen and then send her some love and encouragement. She can use it during her recovery before she also takes on the @dirty_wolf_racing Beast Of The East 100 in December. We just featured that race in Episode 92 so check it out if you haven't already. Be sure to connect with Avery at @thelowcountryrunner and let us know what your favorite takeaway is! Enjoy!

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. We joke a lot on the main show about the fact that we live on the east coast of NC and it is pancake flat. BUT, we do have a race that is about 4 hours away from us that is anything but flat. The Beast of the East 100 takes place in King Mountain, NC and runs the entire trail system of Crowder's Mountain. The 100 miler is a looped course of roughly 25 miles each loop and has a total elevation gain and loss of over 19,000 feet. The course is trails, with some fire roads, and can be pretty technical at times. Richard Abernathy is the Race Director for the Beast of the East 100 and we sat down with him to get some info about the race for you. So take a few minutes and enjoy the episode.

Just over 14 months ago, Paul Johnson wasn't running seriously. And now, just over a year later, he has taken on the Canyons 100, the World Series of Ultra Running UTMB, set a personal marathon best of 2:46 and at the time this recording drops he will be setting out for a 150 mile training adventure from Newport, Rhode Island to Boston and back, all in preparation for a world record attempt from Los Angeles to New York beginning in March 2024. And while all this is impressive, we were more impressed by who Paul is as a person and his constant willingness to look inside, be honest with what he sees, and take action to improve. It's something we can ALL learn from. So take us on your long run and like always, let us know what you think. Ladies and gentlemen, Paul Johnson!

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. In this episode we want to introduce you to the Badwater Salton Sea. Part of the Badwater family of races, Salton Sea is lesser known than the Badwater 135, but has all the features that you would come to expect from a Badwater race. Salton Sea is a team race consisting of two or three runners and the kicker is...it is not a relay, instead they have to stay together. The course covers 81 miles over deserts and mountains in Southern California from Salton City to Palomar Mountain. The route is a mix of road and trail with a total elevation gain of over 9000 feet. The next Salton Sea will take place on April 27th and has a cap of 100 runners. Interested? Listen in as we catch up with race director, Chris Kostman.

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. On the show we are taking a look at the Rocky Raccoon 100 which takes place in Huntsville Texas on the weekend of Feb 3rd and 4th. According to the website, the Rocky Raccoon 100 is "Known as the perfect trail running course for veteran runners wanting a 100mile P.R., as well as the perfect race for rookie ultra runners wanting a good setup to accomplish their goal. Expect frequent and incredible (known around the world) aid station support all day and night. Generous cut-offs. A fun atmosphere for family, friends, and awaiting crew members with 5 x 20 mile beautiful loops around the lake, over wooden bridges, and through towering East Texas trees. Gently undulating trails on a bed of pine needles." The race is a Western states qualifier and runners have 30 hours to complete.

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. As you many of you know, we live on the east coast and don't have a lot of exposure to the races on the west coast, and as we have been doing this series, we have come to find more and more races that are just incredible to think about running. This race is one of those races. The Leona Divide 100K is held in Lake Hughes, California which is North of Los Angeles and runners will spend a majority of their race on the Pacific Crest Trail. The race is also a Western States Qualifier. We encourage you to stick around through the end of the show as well as there is a HUGE announcement this year that the RD, Keira Henninger, makes and we think will make the Leona Divide experience even more incredible.

This week we are taking a look at the JFK 50, which is a 50 mile run located in Maryland. The JFK 50 is "America's Oldest Ultramarathon" dating back to 1963 and has a rich history that makes this race one that every runner should put on their calendar at some point. The race is broken down into 3 segments. The Appalachian trail segment which starts with 2.5 miles on a road before entering the trailhead for the Appalachian trail for another 13 miles. After that, runners will run 26.3 miles on the C&O Canal towpath which is flat and unpaved, and then leaving the towpath, they get back on paved rolling country roads for the final 8.4 miles. This course is point to point and has over 1000 runners. This race is a fun one and we highly recommend it. Join us as we sit down with Mike Spinnler, Race Director for the JFK 50.

Our mission is to help you take your next step on your ultra running journey. And, sometimes, if you are like us, you may not know what that next step may look like. This week we are taking a look at the Umstead 100, which is a 100 mile run located in Raleigh, NC at the William B Umstead State park. The course consists of 8 loops of 12.5 miles each and consists of crushed gravel and dirt compacted together and provides good footing. Despite being on the east coast it does have some elevation, though not a ton like a mountain race, this course has rolling hills and is considered runnable, but many runners will take the hills as walk opportunities - particularly the steeper ones on the back half of the loop. Total elevation gain is 8000 feet. Runners have 30 hours to complete and the race is also a Western States qualifier. Join us as we sit down with Rhonda Hampton, Race Director for the Umstead 100.
