106 Breaking Down Bold Goals - How Elizabeth Warner Completed the Bigfoot 200

What does it take to run 200 miles through mountains, forests, and volcanic blast zones — and still find joy in every step? In this episode, Elizabeth Warner shares her incredible journey at the Bigfoot 200 ultramarathon, a nonstop 200-mile race around Mount St. Helens. From prevention-first strategies to late-night hallucinations, emotional lows, and breathtaking highs, she takes us inside the mental, physical, and emotional toolkit that got her to the finish line healthy, strong, and grateful. We dig into her why — the deeper motivation behind choosing bold, audacious goals — and how she broke a massive challenge into small, meaningful pieces of progress. Along the way, you'll hear about the importance of crew support, mantras that carried her through the toughest climbs, and what it really means to do hard things. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why setting a "prevention-first" goal can be more powerful than chasing speed The role of joy, gratitude, and mantras in tackling massive goals How small habits and mindset shifts during training pay off on race day Lessons from the highs, lows, and surprising moments of a 200-mile journey How ultrarunning mirrors the risks, choices, and growth we face in everyday life If you've ever wondered what it takes to tackle something bigger than yourself — or you're looking for inspiration for your own "Bigfoot 200" — this episode will leave you believing in relentless forward progress.
