What Happens Beyond 100 Miles? Tahoe 200 Recap with Lyman Hawbaker III
<p>We're joined by special guest Lyman Hawbaker III to relive his unforgettable journey through the Tahoe 200 - his first race beyond the 100-mile distance.</p><p>Lyman shares how injuries both before and during the race shaped his experience, forcing him to adapt and dig deeper than ever before. Along the way, he takes us through the breathtaking scenery of the Tahoe backcountry, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and the mental battle of continuing even after he was convinced his race was over.</p><p>We also hear the incredible story of sleepwalking, getting lost on the trail, and how the unwavering support of his crew and race volunteers ultimately helped carry him to the finish line.</p><p>For years, Lyman found himself asking the same question that so many ultrarunners eventually do: What happens after 100 miles? In this episode, he shares the answer - not just what happens on the trail, but what he discovered about himself by pushing into completely unknown territory. It's a powerful conversation about resilience, self-discovery, and what lies beyond the limits we think we have.</p><p><br></p><p>Follow <a href="https://www.strava.com/athletes/3601418" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Lyman</a> on Strava</p><p>Follow <a href="https://www.strava.com/athletes/35035652" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Chadd</a> on Strava</p><p>Follow <a href="https://www.strava.com/athletes/46643920" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Nick</a> on Strava</p>

Year Two at the Arizona Monster 300
<p>Chadd returns to the Arizona Monster 300 for the second year in a row, and this time, the race hits differently. In this episode, we unpack a rollercoaster performance that started with an unforgiving heat wave, pushing Chadd to his limits and bringing him dangerously close to aid station cutoffs for the first time in his ultrarunning career.</p><p>But instead of breaking, he adapts. We talk through how he managed the early race carnage, regrouped, and ultimately grew stronger as the miles piled on. Along the way, he shares some unconventional nutrition strategies - including a legendary stop at In-N-Out in Tucson - and how a bit more sleep helped him avoid the hallucinations that have plagued past races.</p><p>We also zoom out for a deeper conversation on balance: what it takes to train for and complete races of this magnitude while maintaining a sustainable life. This one is about resilience, evolution, and learning how to go further - not just in distance, but in mindset.</p>

2025 Moab 240 Race Recap
<p>Chadd’s back at Moab 240 for the second year in a row, but this time, with a twist. For the first time in his 200+ mile ultramarathon career, Chadd tackled a race with the support of a dedicated crew and pacers, and their presence changed everything. In this episode, we break down how that new dynamic shaped the race, including live audio recorded by his crew throughout the event.</p><p>But even with added support, Moab didn’t make it easy. Chadd recounts the brutal conditions: relentless rain, thick mud, freezing temps, and the mental toll of sleep deprivation that led to some wild hallucinations and heated sleep debates. This is a raw, unfiltered look at what it means to grind through one of the toughest ultramarathons out there.</p>
