Ep. 332 - Hypnosis Night Race Recap

Last weekend, I headed to Arizona to crew and coach a handful of She Runs Ultras athletes at the Hypnosis Night Race - an overnight trail event put on Aravaipa Running.

The conditions were brutal: triple-digit temperatures, relentless wind, blowing sand, and miles of technical desert terrain in the dark.

In this episode, we're talking about:

• What it was like to race through the Arizona desert at night
• Why every ultrarunner will eventually face a DNF
• The question I asked that completely changed how one athlete viewed her race
• Why finish lines aren't the only measure of success
• The hidden value of a DNF—and why it might be one of the most important experiences you can have as an ultrarunner

Because sometimes the biggest win isn't crossing the finish line.

Sometimes it's walking away with lessons, skills, and experience you'll carry into every race that comes after.
