500+ calories per hour. Heading into the Leadville 100, I wanted to chase Matt Carpenter’s legendary time of 15:42. That presented an obvious problem—Matt is a GOAT, who was better than I could dream of being. How can you compete with someone whose VO2 max was one of the highest

Answering some questions: -I only consume this carb total a few times a training block, though will be around 90 g/hr on all moderate intensity long runs. I often will drink ~a liter of fluid all at once on runs to prepare my stomach for volume (channeling lessons from

The Pain Cave. Ultras are known for the “Pain Cave,” this mythical place where athletes suffer for hours on end. What I learned after my bike accident in April is that the Pain Cave doesn’t mean “pain” like a head injury or broken bones. It means stripping down the physical

Of everything that has happened since Leadville, this might be the most wild to me. I was an original Deadspin reader in the mid-2000s (RIP), and I subscribed to Defector the day it was announced. This interview includes everything--even remembering some guys, in true sicko

In a post-Leadville 100 Q+A, I was asked about my weight and bodyfat percentage. I responded that I didn’t know. We tossed our scale in the dumpster sometime around 2014, and I haven’t weighed myself since. There is some nuance there, which I wanted to expand on. Yes, we
