Hosts Zoë Rom and Buzz Burrell discuss the rise of races that are 200 miles and longer, why different running goals are valid, and what draws us to different events.

14:20 Zoë interviews the winner of the 2024 Cocodona 250, Rachel Entrekin, about how she approaches multi-day races and balances training with work and life (or doesn’t!). They discuss sleep strategies, and how people can train for their first 200 mile race. 

38:02 Buzz interviews Candice Burt, owner of Destination Trail Races, which hosts the Triple Crown of 200-mile races. They discuss Candice’s work as a race director, what it takes to put on a 200-mile race, and her approach to long-distance races and FKTs as an athlete.
