So excited to welcome Emily Schmitz to the podcast. She's a pro trail runner who most recently finished third at UTMB, one of the most prestigious and competitive mountain ultramarathons in the world. She found her love for the mountains and trail running in Colombia, and now calls Chamonix home. She told us it was surreal to cross that finish line knowing she was on the podium, and we deep dive into the race itself, what went well, and things that made the difference. We also chat about her journey as an athlete, with the Golden Trail Series as a key chapter, and talk about longevity, where the sport is headed, and what really matters when setting goals for yourself.
Subscribe to "She Trails Podcast" for future episodes, where we dive into women trail rand ultra runners stories, and get inspired to explore new paths and seek our own adventures, whatever they may be.
