What does it take to have an amazing race in a type of terrain that is a different style from what you’re normally used to?

For Jeff Mogavero, an accomplished mountain ultrarunner for On Running, he looked to answer that question by racing in the Javelina Jundred 100 miler, just months after completing UTMB.

And even though the flatter course was relatively unique territory for Jeff based on his past races, he was able to finish second place and win a Golden Ticket to Western States 100!

How did he do it? In this episode he shares his training, race strategy, hydration strategy, and mindset that all led to his special day in the desert.

We cover things such as:

How to go from mountain training to flat training
Optimizing mindset both in training and in the race
How to nail hydration (even if it has been a struggle point in the past)
How to execute a plan in a race, even when the conditions are tough
How to enjoy the process amidst hard training

Huge thank you to Jeff for coming on the show!
