Ep. 313 - The Undeniable Connection Between Trauma & Ultra Running with Dr. Alison Roy

In this episode I'm chatting with my friend and licensed psychologist, Dr. Alison Roy. She's been a guest on the show before, way back in 2023 - episode 171. This time around, I wanted to explore the topic of trauma and why she thinks there are so many people in the sport of ultras that have experienced trauma. During this episode we also touch on being an adaptive athlete & some real-time skills that you can use out there on the trails if you're looking to improve your mental resilience.
