Ep 17 / Stephanie Page / Shawnee Hills 100 RD

02/19/22 • 68 min

Welcome to the Lace Up and Run Podcast. We believe in a fun and active lifestyle with a primary focus on running and hiking. There is a supply of bourbon in the podcast studio so there is pretty much a guarantee there might be some of Kentucky's finest consumed during the show.
Stephanie Page joins the podcast. Stephanie is the new Race Director for the Shawnee Hills 100 and co-director for the Arrowhead Endurance Run.
Stephanie has added a 1/2 marathon option for the 2022 Shawnee Hills race for those looking to get into trail running or just desiring a shorter distance!
Stephanie shared her emotional and inspirational story about her experience with the Barkley Fall Classic. She intends to return and conquer the course in the fall of this year.
Between balancing a family life, owning a farm, and being an ultra running athlete, Stephanie can be an inspiration to us all.

Ep 16 / Morgan Davis Part 2 / Tackling the Difficult Pinhoti 100 & More

Welcome to the Lace Up and Run Podcast. We believe in a fun and active lifestyle with a primary focus on running and hiking. There is a supply of bourbon in the podcast studio so there is pretty much a guarantee there might be some of Kentucky's finest consumed during the show.
Love having Morgan Davis on the show. There is always so much running information to uncover, but not enough time to get to it all.
Morgan talks about her experience at the No Business 100 in the Big South Fork Recreation Area. Despite the technical terrain and over 14,500 feet of gain, she finished 5th overall female.
Morgan ran the Cloudland Canyon 50K two months after No Business. The race is held in Georgia and despite navigating 4,500 feet of gain, she accomplished a 8th overall female finish.
Morgan and I went back a few years and talked about her experience at the Barkley Fall Classic at the famed Frozen Head State Park.
Morgan will be tackling the very difficult Pinhoti 100 in November. "Only recommended for very experienced adventurers" is all that needs to be said.
What powers Morgan through these ultra races? My guess is it must be the Fireball!

Ep 18 / BIG RACE ANNOUNCEMENT

Welcome to the Lace Up and Run Podcast. We believe in a fun and active lifestyle with a primary focus on running and hiking. There is a supply of bourbon in the podcast studio so there is pretty much a guarantee there might be some of Kentucky's finest consumed during the show.
Episode 18:
Big race announcement - Wicked Pig Ultra coming on December 10th.
RTS Sports will be hosting this Ultra Event on the Southern Illinois River to River Trail. The River to River Trail is a 160 mile trail that serves the Shawnee National Forest in far southern Illinois. It will be divided into 4 sections over four years. Therefore, if you complete all four sections, you will have completed the entire River to River Trail.
The first year will be approximately a 60K. Don't like the word "approximate?" Welcome to our wicked ways. The trail is both wicked and beautiful...wickedly beautiful?
The race will start when the Race Director's eat their piece of bacon followed by a wicked whisky shooter!
We are only waiting for the official approval documentation to arrive in the mail before we go full launch!
As if that announcement wasn't enough, Tim and Lindsey discuss the Barkley Marathon and the Land Between the Lakes (LBL) 50 Miler.
