129. Adam Peterman Interview! Western States 100 Winner and World Champ on Life, Training, and Kindness

from Some Work, All Play · host David Roche and Megan Roche

We got to have a joyous, wide-ranging interview with the athlete who has quietly had one of the greatest running seasons ever, Adam Peterman! He is so kind, funny, and gracious, and we can't wait for you to get to know him in a deeper way during this episode. Adam's last year of racing has been mind-blowing, with wins at the JFK 50 Miler, Chuckanut 50k, Canyons 100k, Western States 100, and the World Championships. We discuss the training and long-term trajectory that led to his legendary speed and endurance! That means a deep dive into everything from weekly mileage to workouts to strength to training block structure. But our favorite parts of the episode involved his answers to probing questions about kindness, image, and pursuing potential in an uncertain world.  Adam is a stellar human whose journey is just getting started. This is the inspirational story of how a Peterman became a PeterGOD! For a weekly bonus episode (and bi-weekly newsletter), make sure you're subscribed to our Patreon. We appreciate you so much!
