Hayden Hawks - Western States, Knee Surgery, and UTMB buzz

In this, the first episode of the Headlamp Hour podcast we talk with none other than the amazing Hayden Hawks, my former college teammate, current training partner, and good friend. We delve into his whirlwind of a year – from his difficult but formative DNF at Western States last June, to his knee surgery and recovery, to his move to Boulder, CO, and why he decided to move back to Cedar City, UT. We also dive into Hayden's insights on some recent headlines, including his thoughts on the latest buzz around UTMB. It's an episode packed with resilience, recovery, and the raw realities of this father of two and professional trail runner. Without further ado, let's get on to the interview with Hayden Hawks!
