She Runs Ultras is about (yup, you guessed it) running ultras. Lots of other running podcasts out there are full of gear & race reviews and interviews with the experts telling unrelatable stories about their record breaking times and super human feats. Now…don’t get me wrong, I’ve learned some great stuff from those podcasts...But what about those of us that aren’t getting paid to do this? Those of us that are mid to back of the pack runners? And those of us that have never won a damn thing? What was out there for us? Yeah, I couldn’t find it - so I decided to make it! And it just so happens that I’m getting geared up to start training for some races in 2021. So throughout this series, I’ll share what really happens when a typical, non-professional runner takes on the challenge of running an ultra. Got some races planned for this year? Let’s train together. From the emotional & physical ups and downs, to the details of my actual training plan, and the excitement (not to mention nerves

After nearly a decade of coaching ultrarunners, I've started to notice certain patterns that immediately make me pay closer attention. They're not guarantees that something will go wrong...but they are red flags that often lead to injury, burnout, missed goals, or unnecessary frustration if they're ignored. In this episode, I'm sharing the 10 things that make me nervous as a coach—from blindly following a training plan and making huge jumps in mileage to being afraid to walk, obsessing over m...
If you are not attempting things before you feel 100% ready, then you're missing out! This week's episode is based around the idea that you need to: "Go Before You Are Ready" in order to accomplish your ultra goals. Waiting until you're confident in your ability will result in you waiting indefinitely. Cue this up for your next workout and really embrace this idea in ONE SMALL WAY today, and then again tomorrow, and the day after that, and so on and so forth. 🏃🏻♀️GET...
Ever notice how the people around you have plenty of opinions about your ultra running? In this episode, I'm sharing a simple encounter with a bear in my neighborhood that turned into a powerful coaching lesson about fear, beliefs, and why so many runners unknowingly carry around stories that aren't actually their own. In this episode, we cover: Why the same situation can lead to completely different reactions based on our beliefs.How friends, family, social media, and even other runners unkn...
This week I'm chatting with my friend, Sian Milne, about strength & mobility for runners. Sian is a former stunt woman for the film industry turned strength & mobility coach, and a runner on top of that! So she knows a thing or two about bodies and how to keep them strong and resilient. The biggest takeaway that I hope you get from this episode is this: You cannot become a stronger runner by just running. There will come a point when you'll hit a barrier, and t...
We're officially halfway through the year...so how's your training going? Whether your goal race is just around the corner or still months away, now is the perfect time to pause and check in. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple mindset shift that has completely changed the way I approach ultra training—and it's one I think every runner needs to hear. If you've been waiting for the "perfect" stretch of training with no aches, no schedule conflicts, and no life interruptions...you're going to...
Last weekend, I headed to Arizona to crew and coach a handful of She Runs Ultras athletes at the Hypnosis Night Race - an overnight trail event put on Aravaipa Running. The conditions were brutal: triple-digit temperatures, relentless wind, blowing sand, and miles of technical desert terrain in the dark. In this episode, we're talking about: What it was like to race through the Arizona desert at nightWhy every ultrarunner will eventually face a DNFThe question I asked that completely changed ...
In this episode, I'm sharing my 10 Training Plan Commandments. The rules I've learned after years of coaching athletes and watching the same training mistakes show up over and over again. In this episode, we'll cover: Why adding extra workouts can derail your progressWhat to do when you miss a runHow to stop overreacting to one bad workoutWhy your easy runs should actually be easyThe role recovery plays in making a training plan workHow comparison can pull you away from your own trainin...
Most runners think they need more motivation, discipline, or a better training plan. But what if the bigger factor is the environment you're training in? In this episode, Meghan explores how the people around you, the content you consume, and the systems you've built into your life can either support your ultra goals or make them harder than they need to be. In this episode: • How the people around you shape what feels possible • Why consistency has more to do with environment than motivation...
