S4 Ep 3 Sisters Go The Distance with Lyndsi Davenport and Kendell Myers

Send us Fan MailWhat actually happens between mile 48 and mile 100, when your brain is tired, your stomach is bored of sugar, and the trail turns to cambered sand and black mud? We sat down with sisters Lyndsi and Kendell to unpack their first 100 miler at the Wolverine 100—how they trained, why they split mid-race, and the small choices that kept them moving when comfort vanished.We trace the leap from “maybe I could” to toeing the line: a postpartum return to running, a DNF that lit a fire, and a training approach built around consistency, fueling practice, and hiking early on the big climbs. You’ll hear how they selected a point-to-point course for the mental boost, why generous cutoffs matter for first-timers, and how conservative pacing turned into late-race passes. Then we get into the real trail: the notorious dirt bike section with sand and mud that humbled everyone, the log bridge wobble, and that surreal late-night stretch where mailbox reflectors looked like eyes and coyotes sounded like a cheering crowd.The turning point arrives with pacers. Fresh legs and fresher minds brought structure—fuel every 30 minutes, short run-walk intervals, clear cues, and relentless encouragement. Aid stations became more than calories: a fruit cup that tasted like salvation, warm broth when sweets failed, and a disco stop that reset spirits. Family support threaded the day together—refills, tape, caffeine, and honest feedback. By mile 90, they were still running, still solving problems, and still discovering that the body goes farther than doubt allows. Finishing fourth and fifth female on debut wasn’t the point; it was the proof. They crossed the line with a new baseline for hard, and a simple message for anyone on the fence: start before you feel ready, keep it simple, and let consistency carry you.If you’re curious about ultramarathon strategy, fueling, pacers, and the mindset that turns discomfort into momentum, this one’s your map.
