Episode Notes
"100 miles is like the new 10k."
Luis Escobar talks with Ultramarathonman Dean Karnazes, one of TIME magazine's "Top 100 Most Influential People in the World." Men's Fitness hailed him as one of the fittest men on the planet. Among his many accomplishments, he has run 350 continuous miles, foregoing sleep for three nights. He's run across Death Valley in 120 degree temperatures, and he's run a marathon to the South Pole in negative 40 degrees. On ten different occasions, he's run a 200-mile relay race solo.
Dean talks about his introduction to distance running and his involvement over the past twenty years. Luis and Dean share stories about running the Badwater Ultra Marathon and the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run.
