It was an honor to welcome ultrarunning sensation Jim Walmsley to the show! Jim has been a personal inspiration of mine and has single handedly changed the paradigm in our sport over the last 5 years. We cover a lot of ground in this 90min conversation, exploring what sets Jim apart as a man and athlete. We talk about his sporting heroes, his relationship to social media, self-belief and self doubt, dealing with critics, his personal time trial on the Hardrock 100 course, the Golden Trail World Championship, and much more.
