Episode 131: Rebecca Scott - Rocky Raccoon 100, Being DFL, and Taking On The Speedgoat 50K!

Rebecca Scott is a fighter!  A quick scan of her UltraSignup will definitely show that she’s tough, with a podium finish in 12 of the 27 listed events, but what it won’t show you are the obstacles that she has had to overcome to get here.  Because the truth is that life is not always fair, and adversity is not evenly distributed, but she is a glaring example that even in the face of overwhelming odds, we all have the power to persevere.  And in her case, to share extra positivity with those around her.  Her goal at every ultra is to bring a smile to someone in the race, Because, in her own words, “You have no idea what someone has struggled with, and if you can bring a little light to their darkness, you are doing well.”  So plug into to hear her inspiring story, why her kids had to kick her out of the car at Mile 80 of the Rocky Raccoon 100, and what type of race she swears to never do again after a recent, hard fought DFL experience.  And also, a huge congrats for just taking on the Speedgoat 50K!  Hard fought and well deserved!
