Alex Price | Ultramarathons, Trail Vs Road, Running Helping Dark Moments, & More | S2 Ep2

In this episode of The Amateur Athlete Diaries, I sit down with Alex, a father of three, full-time professional, and ultramarathon runner who took running from a “lamp post to lamp post” jog into a 100-mile endurance feats.Alex shares how running became his coping mechanism for life’s hardest moments, from grieving his father’s passing to balancing the pressures of work, family, and self-discipline. We dive into the mental battles of ultrarunning, how to train around the responsibilities of life, and why doing hard things can teach you more than crossing any finish line.Whether you’re a weekend runner, a busy parent, or someone looking to get into running, Alex’s story may just remind you that progress doesn’t start with speed, it simply starts with showing up.Enjoy :)
