About this episode
In this episode, I’m taking you inside my first 50K of 2025 — the wild, wet, and wicked Bloodroot Ultra in Pittsfield, Vermont. Spoiler alert: it rained for 10+ days before race weekend, so the course was less "trail" and more "swampy obstacle course."From overflowing rivers and knee-deep mud to surprise cutoffs and surprise aid station visits from my husband, this one had everything. I talk gear (spoiler: I was overpacked), mindset, and the moment at mile 20 where I had to make a tough decision: quit or keep pushing.You'll hear about:The Spartan-inspired terrain (minus the man-made obstacles)Slippery bridges, sketchy climbs, and how *not* to preserve dry feetA race that almost got the better of me — and why I kept going anywayIf you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to keep moving when the fun is gone and the mud won’t quit, this one’s for you.?
