I'm so excited to have Alyssa Clark back on the podcast! We dive deep into the mental side of running and why racing your best takes more than just one mental strategy. It's about building a whole toolbox of skills and knowing when to pull out the right one.
Alyssa was already an incredibly accomplished runner, so hearing how she continued to explore, learn, and find new ways to overcome challenges through her mental game is pretty cool. There's always another layer, and this conversation is a great reminder that we can keep getting better.

We chat gear, 100 mile training, maintenance phases, and pelvic floor health. What is the best rain coat? How little can you do and still pull off a 100 miler? Should the state of your pelvic floor stop you from running? All that and more!

Training catch up with Lauren!
We chat about why effort can sometimes matter more than hitting an exact pace, and how stress and everything happening outside of running can sneak into your performance.
We also talk about learning to embrace the tough parts instead of constantly fighting them, and reminding ourselves that a run doesn't have to go perfectly to still be a good one.

Notes de l’épisode
Ria Xi is a Chinese-born ultrarunner attempting to become the first human to run across Asia and Europe on the Silk Road—20,000 kilometers from Vladivostok to Lisbon. After burning out from her tech career in Silicon Valley and struggling with mental health challenges, she discovered running as a path back to meaning. Within a year, she went from barely finishing a half marathon to setting FKTs on the Via Francigena and Camino de Santiago, and becoming the first person to run Egypt's 539km Sinai Trail. In May 2026, she'll begin a 14-month journey across 17 countries, building what she calls the "Planetary Run Club"—a community-driven project centered on human connection in a dividing world.

Notes de l’épisode
Trish's fitness journey began with the birth of her first child, Jess, in 1990. Her mom had battled with obesity and was unable to participate in most activities. Trish was determined to do it differently and wanted to be fit enough to be active with her kids. Her running journey began in 2020 when her next daughter Ally signed up to run a marathon and asked her to train to run a 5k with her as part of her training. Her initial response was "I'm not a runner", but ultimately, she couldn't say no. Trish talks about learning to run in your 40's and 50's and the importance of strength training. She had to overcome hip surgery and begin learning how to build up properly. Eventually, with a lot of work and even more determination she ran a full marathon herself.

Bre Mirynech has been trail running for the past 6 years. She moved to Banf if 2013 and was big into climbing, hiking, mountaineering, snowboarding, backpacking- you name it. Over the years however, she really noticed the risk of a lot of it starting to take its toll on her mental space when she was out adventuring, and eventually came to a place where she was struggling to find the fun in it anymore. This led her to really fall in love with trail running. It satisfied her adventurous side, her love of the outdoors and movement, but it gave her back the spark of "fun". She has been all in on it ever since!For my personal trainign blog: Patreon!

Notes de l’épisode
Cassandra underwent a gastric sleeve procedure in 2022 and immediately began to focus on staying active. She started with walking, strength training, and swimming. She eventually went out to try a run, about 6 most post surgery, and she couldn't even make it 100 feet. She kept at it, and in Jan 2024, she ran her first mile. After that is became a game of "what else can I do." She has since run a 5km, 10km, half marathon, and by October 2024 her first full marathon. Cassandra is super inspiring and I can't wait to see what she accomplishes next.
