Running a 100 miler is hard. Running a 100 miler

Running a 100 miler is hard. Running a 100 miler with a partner is really hard. Running a 100 miler with a partner, in negative temps while snowing is off the charts. But this past weekend, that’s exactly with Jackie Beth and Lindsey did… all of it.. together.. in the snow and below zero temps at Outlaw 100 in Oklahoma. 26 brave souls toed the line for the 100.. 12 finished. Along the way, Jackie Beth and and Lindsey dealt with frozen water bottles, lost hiking poles, lung issues due to the cold, frozen gels, cold toes and fingers, falls and hallucinations. Through it all, they kept each other going, kept each other upbeat, took the time to make snow angels and slide down steep hills on their butts. If we had one word to describe how they run together, it would be joyous. No matter what gets thrown at them they find ways to make it fun and move forward. They embody the phrase “for the love of running.” We couldn’t be more proud of their perseverance and dedication to each other and their goals.

It’s the kind of cold that we only see here on rare occasions. Started today’s run in -2° with a -22° windchill.
As much as we talk about running in all weather, weeks like this are still a bit unique for us. So we have to really touch base with our athletes about comfort levels, types of gear and clothing they can layer, and many other factors. We have spent the last week discussing running in this type of cold, staying safe, and reworking schedules to meet the needs of our athletes.
It’s been really enjoyable to talk through all of this, because the workable scenarios are as unique as our clients. We’ve been really proud of everyone finding ways to navigate these couple of frigid weeks,
Plus we got out today and had some absolutely beautiful views and nice crunchy snow!! Now when we start to get some degrees back it’ll feel downright balmy!

We like @fitrwoman because it’s so much more than just a tracking app. It’s geared towards athletes and how people’s cycles affect their training.
If you’re interested in providing data for this study, take a look at their information below.
(We do want to acknowledge the heteronormative language used, and that not everyone who menstruates is female.)
