Thanks for dropping in Ken! Yeah, it is hard to believe how deep of a history and what disciplines have drawn the most attention over the years. Thanks for keeping the pod on your radar!
I'm running Transrockies near Leadville. Very excited but will definitely be a challenge with the elevation since I will be training mostly in Austin TX.
Wow Zach I had no idea you went this deep on the topic! We could have talked the whole hour on Sunday about this alone. Awesome content! I need to dig into Davy's books a little more. (BTW, the most awesome name for an ultra runner. I mean, The "original" Davy Crockett probably had his fair share of "Ultra" days in woods. Probably a lot of Barkley type trekking too).
Haha, yeah the name might generate a few extra listens all by itself :) I'm sure we could have spent the whole day chatting about it. I'm thinking about rearranging my podcast studio to showcase a bookshelf and just load it up with all of his work!
Madison square garden with one of these events in the early 1900s sounds wild! Looking forward to the podcast 👌🏼

I started going deep on the ultrarunning history pod now too thanks to you 👌🏼
MSG story is wild! I'm running a 6 day event this summer in Colorado. This will be my first ultra and multi day event.
That is awesome! Which 6-Day are you doing Cal?
