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 feet
• A race that almost got the better of me — and why I kept going anyway

If 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.

In this episode of She Runs Ultras, I sit down with professional age group triathlete Colin Cook — a multi-time Ironman World Championship competitor and the founder of Peak Recovery in Manchester, NH. We talk about what it takes to perform at a high level in endurance sports, the critical role recovery plays in long-term success, and how everyday athletes can use simple tools to stay strong and injury-free.

Colin also shares his personal journey in triathlon, what led him to open Peak Recovery, and his top advice for athletes training for big goals — like running your first 50k!

Got a race coming up? In this episode, I’m sharing the *three key things* I’m doing this week to make sure I feel strong, confident, and ready when I toe the line for my upcoming 50K.

Here’s what I cover:

💧 Staying on top of hydration — why waiting until the day before the race is a huge mistake

😴 Prioritizing sleep — especially the *two nights before*, and how to create more rest overall

🧘‍♀️ Doubling down on mobility — because those last-minute mystery aches are *always* a thing

Plus, a bonus tip about… toenails (yes, really!) and why trimming them *at the right time* matters more than you think.

And if you're running your first 50K this summer or fall and you're feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or just need support—don’t miss the details about the **She Runs Ultras Membership**. Doors open **Monday, May 12** and there are just 8 spots available!

🎧 Tune in now and set yourself up for your strongest race yet.
