Hey Guys

I really enjoy your podcast . I am an Australian, I live with my Canadian wife in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. I started listening to your podcast about 6 months ago maybe and I am slowly working my way through the old episodes and also treating myself with a new one from time to time. I ran my first ultra last fall the Superior 50 Miler in Minnesota. I was trying to qualify for the Western States. I made a few mistakes and did not finish in 11hrs. I am going to give the Superior 100 Miler a go this year and plan to qualify for the lottery hopefully. I was just wondering why the Superior 100 never gets any play ? it is a race that is organized so well and their website is fantastic for anyone who is having a crack at their first Ultra. I don’t know if it’s because it doesn’t have the elevation change other ultras have (net change 42,000 feet), I just don’t get it. I ran the 50 and it is not an easy, super runnable course from what I experienced. I was wondering if you guys had run it before? or why I have never heard it mentioned on your show before ? I don’t know how long it has been running but I would have thought Scott Jurek would have run it before as it’s only 3.5 hrs from Duluth. Anyway it’s just been on my mind. If you do mention it don’t pump it up too much, we don’t want another Western States situation 🙂 . Thanks for reading, and thanks for motivating me to head out the door to run when it’s -30 celcius with wind chills of -40. Can’t wait for spring/summer. Keep up the good work

Thanks

Nick

  Hello Nick! Minus fa-fa-fa-forty?! My teeth are chattering. Thanks for reaching out. I am not familiar with the Superior 100, but will dig in and take a look. Sorry your 50 did not goes as planned – but first a first time 50 is like going to school – you’re going to get an education. You’ve learned your lessons AND you want to do a hundo! Bully for you. Hope your spring days come soon. Thanks for writing. ~Scotty

Wow! thanks for the reply. You guys are truly an inspiration. If all goes to plan maybe I will run into you guys at “States” in the not to distant future.

Thanks very much and have a great season.

Nick

Your podcast is my new favourite podcast. In one episode, I haven’t listened all yet, you talked about some goodies in here, so I decided to look. Unfortunatelu this page (https://ultrarunnerpodcast.com/resources/) gives me error message “GDE Error: Error retrieving file – if necessary turn off error checking (404:Not Found)” and Black toenail gallery also doesn’t work. Your interviews are mostly great (there has been one I didn’t like, otherwise great job), and if you fix those few problems with this site, you are the best.
