E04 | Jeremy Pope Shares His Strategy for Black Canyon 100K

Step into the world of endurance racing with Ohio's own ultra-runner, Jeremy Pope, as he opens up about his preparations for the Black Canyon 100K.  Our conversation covers the mental strategies for pacing and the balancing act of starting a race intelligently to preserve energy for the demanding miles ahead.

As Jeremy has also found a spot on the 2024 Western States waitlist, we delve into the parallels between the two races, contemplating the mini version of the Western States that the Black Canyon offers.

Wrapping up with the nuts and bolts that keep a runner going, we tackle Jeremy's choices in gear, from the decisions in selecting the right shoes—like the Nike UltraFly or Hoka's Tecton X—to the considerations for apparel that can make a tangible difference in conquering the heat.
