Alyssa Clarke | Running Toward the Edge of Potential | Season 2, Episode 32

In this episode of Pushing Horizons: Steps by Steps, I sit down with Alyssa Clark, one of the most accomplished endurance athletes in ultrarunning today.From breaking the 24-hour barrier at HURT 100 to winning Moab 240 and standing on podiums at some of the toughest races in the world, Alyssa’s journey is not about shortcuts or hype. It’s about patience, durability, and learning how to stay present when things get uncomfortable.We talk honestly about endurance mindset, how to tell the difference between pain and danger, recovery beyond the physical, training for 100-mile and 200+ mile races, handling DNFs, and why being brave sometimes means starting without knowing how it will end.This conversation is for runners, endurance athletes, and anyone chasing the edge of their own potential.Keywords:ultrarunning podcast, endurance mindset, ultra marathon training, women in ultrarunning, 100 mile race, 200 mile ultramarathon, Moab 240, HURT 100, trail running podcast, mental toughness, recovery in ultrarunning, pushing limits
