Episode Details

In this episode of Peak Pursuits, Sophie Broome joins Jess and Brodie to unpack her journey to the upcoming UTK 100. 

Sophie reflects on bouncing back from a tough DNF at UTA, the science and testing she’s used to refine her fueling and pacing, and how she’s balancing training with work. Jess shares her own build-up, the challenges of managing anxiety and hormones, and the mental strategies she’s been practicing with a sports psychologist. Together they explore the realities of long-distance trail racing—training dynamics, recovery, mindset, and the importance of arriving fresh and ready to execute on race day.
