Podcast 244: Road to 50 Miles – The Ultra Journey of Kara & Jen

By in Podcast

The YogiTriathlete podcast exists to shine the light on people looking, finding, and living their purpose. Peeps taking risks, going big, doing things that they never thought possible, and learning about themselves through the process. We love to dive in, we love to laugh, and we love to find meaning between the words.

We are excited to have two amazing ladies with us today who embarked on an epic adventure, believed in themselves, experienced the feels, and went for it. Kara Wilson and Jen McMahon are the stars of the documentary Road To 50 Miles, which chronicles the journey as they train for and run their first 50-mile ultramarathon. 

We hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoyed recording it with Jen and Kara. 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • cross-training with the elderly
  • playing the long game
  • professional support crew  
  • insider stories that did not make the movie
  • how to pack when the start line is underwater 
  • biggest obstacles to overcome
  • navigating the naysayers
  • removing the word “can’t” from your vocabulary

We recognize our Patreon community for their support. They are the sole reason why this podcast is commercial-free.
