Summary

Originally aired on Without Compromise

The thought of training for a 100-mile ultra intimidates most people, but for Olan Johnson, it’s a comfortably uncomfortable process. 

Olan and wife, Ericka, recently welcomed a baby boy into the world and are so excited for the new family dynamic, even if it means less sleep and lots of challenges, much like an ultramarathon. 

Listen in on today’s episode on how Athletic Brewing Ambassador, Olan Johnson, balances all of life’s many adventures and challenges, without compromise.
