Duncan Callahan had his doubts about whether he could win for a second time at this month’s Leadville 100 — he had some extremely stiff competition. Halfway through the race, Duncan was behind leader Tony Krupicka by more than an hour. That’s when something unexpected happened. An interview with two-time Leadville champ Callahan, today on Endurance Planet. This episode is brought to you by 2tomsaustralia.com.
Earlier this week, Endurance Planet hosted a live, interactive webinar on Racing at High Altitude with Dr. Scott Drum. Drum is the Director of the High Altitude Performance Lab at Western State College in Colorado. He’s also the founder of the Gunnison Endurance Project. Today on Endurance Planet, we’re making the audio portion of that webinar available to all our listeners. Special thanks to our webinar sponsor: AltoLab Altitude Training Simulator. Look for more Endurance Planet webinars in the weeks to come!
This week on the Endurance Planet Hour we hear from three extraordinary individuals. Duncan Callahan is an elite ultra runner from Gunnison, Colorado who has notched some impressive wins—including Leadville–in his young career. Tara Livesay is a long-distance runner and mission worker in Port Au Prince, Haiti who is continuing to run in a region of the world that has been utterly devastated. And Olympic triathlete Matty “Boom Boom” Reed is offering age-groupers the opportunity to race on his relay team in an event which will raise funds for a worthy cause.
