Talking everything outdoors. Encouraging everyone to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors.
As MS 50 race week arrives, On Your Left with Matt Clem brings the story full circle. One year after the show’s first conversation about this iconic race, Matt sits down with ultra running veteran Mike, who is preparing to attempt his staggering 249th 100 mile finish.
Joining via Zoom from Santa Fe, New Mexico is Mike’s wife and trusted crew chief, Sandra Bullock Smith, author of Crewing an Ultra Runner: Start to Finish. Sandra shares what truly happens behind the scenes of a successful ultra effort, from pacing strategy and logistics to the emotional support that keeps runners moving when everything hurts.
Also in studio is longtime MS 50 volunteer and MUTS board member Ethan Mayeu, offering an insider’s look at what makes the MS 50 such a special event in the ultra community.
This episode is a masterclass in endurance, preparation, and the power of a great crew. If you are running MS 50, dreaming about your first ultra, or chasing your next buckle, this conversation will fire you up.
