#17 - Triple Crown of 200's with Mike McKnight

Mike McKnight is the first winner of the Triple Crown of Ultra 200 Mile races by having the lowest combined time of the Bigfoot 200, Tahoe 200, and Moab 240.  I asked Mike to come on the podcast to talk about what he does and how he does it.  Like most things, Mike didn't set out to run three races in three months, but that's what happened and because he stuck it out, he has a pretty cool story to tell.   We talk about his ability to push through when he wanted to quit, his love for his family, and his admiration for fellow runners.  You're going to love hearing Mike tell this story.Show Notes and LinksIntro to Mike McKnightThe history of the Triple Crown and how it worksHow Mike started down the path of ultra-runningThe ups and downs of each trailHow the desire to quit played a role in Mike’s success in the Triple CrownDigesting the experience of Mikes's accomplishment and what the trail meansAltra Footwear - benefits and designMike's advice to getting into long-distance running and how to work up to ultra distancesText the show!Support the showThanks for tuning in!  Check out the links below to learn more, connect, and support the show.www.byland.coJoin my NON-SPAM newsletterLeave a [email protected]
