I feel like running has always come relatively easy to me, however the past few years have been quite turbulent.

The ultra life chose me
I didn’t choose the ultra life, the ultra life chose me. This cannot be more accurate. I haven’t run an ultra marathon since LAST October. It seems like so long ago, but in reality it wasn’t that long, time goes way to fast. When I fell into running, I didn’t plan to become an ultra runner, it…

We sat down together and ate burritos that we…
