Training can be so much fun until you're an IPOS. Tory and I chat about life as a runner with an injury, life as a runner in my 'condition', and how to survive when your friends aren't runners.
We answer listener questions on how to train for a hilly race while living in the flatlands, and what to do about post race insomnia.

Jess Mullen is a seriously badass runner who is not afraid to tell you like it is. Jess started running ultras in 2007 and realized this was her place. She's a second half runner, so the longer the better. She's run countless trail races including over 46 x 100 milers, ending up on the podium multiple times. She's also a registered dietitian and was kind enough to share some really valuable nutritional knowledge with us.
