Hey everybody. Welcome to Pillars. I'm your host, Dylan Bowman. And today I'm joined by

Brittany Peterson, the ultra assassin from Idaho.

Of course, Brittany is just coming off an incredibly impressive and convincing win at the Black

Canyon 100K just a couple weekends ago, which gave us the perfect opportunity to sit down for a chat. And most of you

will probably know I did the same thing with men's champion, though that was just a quick

20-minute race debrief because Tyler had been on the show before. Brittany has not, so we went

a little bit more long form, which allowed me to get to know Brittany a lot better, which is great. So we went a little bit more long form, which allowed me to get to know Britney a lot better,

which is great. So in addition to the Black Canyon race, which of course we talk about a lot,

we also discuss Brittany's background and history as an athlete. We talk about her day job as an

occupational therapist, her training and versatility as an athlete,

her progression in the sport from going from chasing cutoffs at Leadville back in 2013

to being one of the best in the sport today.

It really is a great story.

And honestly, I am just super, super impressed with Brittany

after having this conversation. She's obviously got great talent, but she also trains and

executes like a total pro, which makes me think she has an even brighter future ahead. And

there is a lot of great knowledge in this hour-long

conversation. Before we get to it, I want to please encourage those who enjoy the show to
