Episode Details

Ultra runner and world record holder Megan Eckert takes a break from running 4.167 miles at a time and joins Doc in the Hiker Trash Radio Studio. Settle in and buckle up and this reluctant runner shares her journey from her first half marathon to becoming the women's world record holder in the Backyard Ultra format. During the discussion, Meg talks about her start at age 29, silver tickets, the importance of mindset, pacing strategy, sleep deprivation, persistent hallucinations, looking for your limit, toughing it out, and what it takes to run 4.167 miles every hour for 87 straight hours. Unbelievable.
