Triple Corwn of 200s w/ Dr Ben Gans, More Metrics in Your Training & An Interview with Ambrin Saft on Her Cross Country Season - Episode 271

from Running Is Life Podcast · host Coach Aaron Saft

Another big episode with lots of show notes!  We start with my interview of Dr Ben Gans and his amazing journey through the Triple Crown of 200s (Tahoe 200, Bigfoot 200, & Moab 240). We go deep into the challenges he faced in this series of races. I loved this conversation! Then I dive deeper in to the metrics of running and how they can affect your base training period.  Lastly, I interview my daughter, Ambrin Saft, after she completed her Freshman season of Cross Country. Enjoy!  Resources: Wes Plate YouTube Moab 240 Video - https://youtu.be/tD2Q6ZOksuk?si=aiA0m1AiZMafmF8_ Salomon S/Lab Adventure 20 Pack - https://www.salomon.com/en-us/product/s-lab-adventure-20-lc13870/LC2710000?CMPID=ps|pm|google|pma_pm_Google_pmax_conv_b_lw_perf_ong_all_us_en_slm|||&utm_source=google&utm_medium=paidsearch&utm_content=aa-cc&utm_keyword=&utm_campaign=pma_pm_Google_pmax_conv_b_lw_perf_ong_all_us_en_slm&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=16891227972&gbraid=0AAAAADMpyOhbSHR4YV3LLCOfgLsfrO870&gclid=Cj0KCQiAiKzIBhCOARIsAKpKLANrwxc8tyy3ownZNY5laJynw8kxe_raKoyPdmo0-5nP67ifuOMfL3QaAqwXEALw_wcB Fixing Your Feet Book - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Fixing-Your-Feet-Injury-Prevention-and-Treatment-for-Athletes-Paperback-9781643590639/804610914?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&wmlspartner=wlpa&cn=FY25-ENTP-PMAX_cnv_dps_dsn_dis_ad_entp_e_n&gclsrc=aw.ds&adid=22222222297804610914_0000000000_21407473164&wl0=&wl1=x&wl2=c&wl3=&wl4=&wl5=9010303&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=804610914&veh=sem&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21690411341&gbraid=0AAAAADmfBIoaumu5-yERaV9ZU_ICha5AG&gclid=Cj0KCQiAiKzIBhCOARIsAKpKLAOh2iY40HDbN2f6QVMZ0pL9L8PiwzjdOnh3-ycrku9r1Ek6oFDU0LcaAsLqEALw_wcB Squirrel Nut Butter - https://squirrelsnutbutter.com/ Outdoor Research Sun Gloves - https://www.outdoorresearch.com/collections/sun-protection-gloves/products/activeice-chroma-sun-gloves-280133 Outdoor Research Sun Hoodie - https://www.outdoorresearch.com/collections/sun-protection/products/mens-echo-hoodie-287625 Leki Trail Running Poles - https://lekiusa.com/collections/trail-running Petzl Swift RL (the light we both recommend) - https://www.petzl.com/US/en/Sport/Headlamps/SWIFT-RL Arc'Teryx Norvan Jacket - https://arcteryx.com/us/en/shop/mens/norvan-insulated-hoody-8435 Dynafit Rain Jacket with Zipper on Back for Pack - https://www.dynafit.com/alpine-gore-tex-jacket-men-08-0000071468 Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer Puffy Line - https://www.mountainhardwear.com/c/ghost-whisperer/?srsltid=AfmBOorSe9uGyS2oDCXXv1xHqlh9uguAsFxNcBUyz955lfL0ybUhVxUJ Wahoo Trackr Heart Rate Monitor - https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices/heart-rate-monitors/trackr-heart-rate-buy Doctor's of Running Podcast on Off Season - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/266-do-not-make-these-offseason-running-mistakes/id1518639507?i=1000735352115 Aaron's information: My Socials, Channels, & Newsletter: https://www.facebook.com/MRRUNNINGPAINSCOACHING https://www.instagram.com/runningislifecoaching/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ6J512qA34z_N0KJSU4jfw https://www.strava.com/athletes/18431982  Email - [email protected] Thanks to all of you for listening!
