Part 3 of our Midwest Super Slam mini-series! Coaches Loretta and Lindsay sit down with athlete Lily Medina after Burning River 100—her third 100-miler of the Slam—where she remains first overall. We break down the highs, lows, and hard lessons from Ohio and look ahead to Hallucination 100 in six weeks.

In this episode:

  • Burning River debrief: lows and highs problem-solving on the fly

  • Fueling wins & fixes after three 100s

  • What’s holding up vs. what needs TLC (body + brain)

  • Six-week rebuild: training, recovery, and taper priorities

  • Loop-course tactics for Hallucination 100 and managing heat/humidity

  • Competing while leading the Slam: pressure → performance

If you’re chasing your first 100—or your fourth—this one’s packed with practical takeaways.
