Savannah Crittenden Doing the Impossible | 200 Mile Ultramarathoner

Doing The Impossible – My Guest, Savannah Crittenden, high school math teacher and 200 mile ultramarathoner. “Not all who wander are lost.” ~ Tolkien My guest this week embodies the idea of doing the impossible, thus the title.  As someone that has ran 34 marathons, two ultras and an ironman triathlon, I cannot even start to wrap my head around running 200 miles over the course of 3 days. When someone decides to challenge themselves they should set the bar so high they can’t even imagine how it could true.  I’ve said many times, when you shoot for the stars and miss you will still hit mountain tops.  Well I feel like it is safe to say that Savannah definitely set her bar high when she decided to tackle Memphis’ first 200 mile ultra. Savannah shares how she ran her first 5k in her late 20’s and like all things in life, you can’t know if you like something unless you try.  Well, suffice it to say, she felt an immediate connection to running and as the years went on she continued to push herself.  She went from 5k to 10k to half marathon and then to marathons.  Eventually, Savannah decided to go for a 100 mile ultra and after much preparation she was able to complete this incredible goal. However, like most people that are driven Savannah knew she would only be limited to what she believed could be possible.  So when she was challenged to run the first ever 200 mile ultra in Memphis, she couldn’t resist the opportunity. You do not want to miss how Savannah not only faced the challenge of doing such an incredible distance, but she overcame insane odds when Mother Nature decided to throw all the runners a massive curveball.
