Show Notes

The Black Canyon 100k is knows as one of the best and fasted 100k trail races in America. And for good reason. The list of elite athletes in the top 10 every year is talented and experienced.

But what is this like for a dedicated amateur runner?

Dr. Jess Mena returns to the show to talk about her experience on the Black Canyon course, how difficult the final 2/3 of the race course, the "trauma bonding" she experienced on the trail, and much more.
