Western States may be in the books, but the ultrarunning world isn't slowing down. Jake and Mick discuss the uncertainty surrounding Hardrock, what the conditions could mean for this year's race, and the latest news leading into one of the sport's most iconic events.
Later in the episode, they call Jeff Browning, fresh off his record-breaking performance at Western States, where he became the fastest 50+ finisher in race history. Jeff reflects on his race, the mindset behind chasing a record, how Cocodona affected his preparation, and what lies ahead as Hardrock quickly approaches.
Whether you're following Hardrock, reliving Western States, or just love hearing from one of the sport's most accomplished veterans, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
