This week, Max and Sarah are joined by one of the exciting young talents making his mark on the ultra-running scene: Morgan Glazier.
Despite his relatively young age, Morgan is already building an impressive racing CV. From a strong performance at the South Downs Way 100 to winning the KosciMiler at Ultra-Trail in Australia, and most recently finishing sixth at Puglia by UTMB in Italy, he’s quickly establishing himself as a name to watch.
We chat about Morgan’s journey into the sport, what it’s like lining up against some of the world’s best ultra runners, and the work that goes into developing as a competitive endurance athlete.
We get into:
– Morgan’s journey into ultra running and his progression through the sport.
– Winning the KosciMiler in Australia and the experience of racing internationally.
– His impressive sixth-place finish at Puglia by UTMB.
– Training, weekly mileage, strength work and staying injury-free.
– The balance between natural ability, hard work and consistency.
– His ambitions, future races and just how far he believes he can go.
An interesting insight into the journey of a young athlete making big strides in the world of ultra running.
