TaylorHOST
Oh.
AlexHOST
Um, but this integrates with the UltrAspire waist light, so you can put a little attachment here, clip the light to it, which is really nice, 'cause during Cocodona even, I was like, "I have too much shit around my waist." I had a waist belt number thing, I had this, and then I had a waist light, and I actually had my vest, and then I had my waist light touching the bottom of my vest, and then I had my race number, and then I had the belt, and it felt like an insane-
TaylorHOST
Mm-hmm
AlexHOST
... amount of shit to have.
AlexHOST
Yeah.
TaylorHOST
Yeah.
AlexHOST
I also, like, races like Cocodona, they are everywhere.
AlexHOST
Everyone was-
Jason BranhamGUEST
I would like to have one of those tests where it measures how much salt is in your sweats.
Jason BranhamGUEST
I'm 99% sure when I was reading about Rachel when she won Cocodona that she had actually got some testing and figured out and knew how much to take in that she was losing whenever she was sweating.
Jason BranhamGUEST
I'd be curious to see if I can find a place like that to just break a sweat and see what kind of results come back.
Scott KnowlesHOST
Yeah, I heard some of those tests is a game changer for some people.
Kilian KorthGUEST
I took a little off season.
Kilian KorthGUEST
And then this year I ran the Cocodona 250 in May.
Kilian KorthGUEST
And that's where I hurt my ankle.
Nikki TamburinoHOST
Wow.
Corrine MalcolmHOST
Jen Lichter at Western States.
Corrine MalcolmHOST
You have Rachel Andrikin at Cocodona 250.
Corrine MalcolmHOST
Like, obviously, there's...
Corrine MalcolmHOST
And, and all the distances in between.
BrianHOST
So, um, all right.
BrianHOST
How about this? Like, so I know big races, right? Like, uh, you pick out, uh, courses that have like an alluring, uh, route to them, uh, through nature, like Cocodona, right.
BrianHOST
It's so epic because of the traverse of, uh, from Phoenix to, to, to Flagstaff.
BrianHOST
Right.
Wendell SouzaGUEST
Yeah.
Wendell SouzaGUEST
20 or 30 minutes, just like, you know, because he tried to do, was it Cocodona? There's some ultra where he fell down, he bonked his head.
Wendell SouzaGUEST
And he's telling his guys
John SkarrHOST
about
Brittany OlsonHOST
As promised, today is the race recap.
Brittany OlsonHOST
It won't be as long as the Cocodona 250.
Brittany OlsonHOST
Well, first of all, because I didn't finish this one, but it's also, you know, even if it was 100 miles, not 250.
Brittany OlsonHOST
But yeah, so just kind of walk you through how it went.
Finn MelansonHOST
comparing the merits of supported versus unsupported or self-supported in these multi-week settings.
Finn MelansonHOST
But then if we go down to this multi-day scene, and again, there's probably a lot of things that I'm overlooking, but as a fan of this distance, as a fan of Tor or Cocodona, these multi-day races, it's increasingly less obvious to me that it makes sense to think about the men's race and the women's race as like two distinct categories and like separate things happening.
Finn MelansonHOST
Like, it just seems like there's so much blending going on.
Finn MelansonHOST
And once you get into like two, three, four days of racing, um, to me, it seems, it feels like one race.
26 MINS LATER
Finn MelansonHOST
Beautiful single loop course.
Finn MelansonHOST
It's going to be live streamed.
Finn MelansonHOST
And I do believe that over time, this race has the potential to be there, right there with Cocodona as one of the other prominent, key, culturally and competitively important multi-day races in the US.
Finn MelansonHOST
You had the experience of live streaming this, or being one of the commentators last year.
Jill DennesGUEST
That's good to know.
Peter NoyesHOST
And then another fun kind of silly thing that we've been doing, I don't know if you followed Cocodona this year or Leadville that just happened, but we are bringing basketball to ultra running.
Peter NoyesHOST
So at Cocodona, we have the NBA, Mingus Basketball Association, where, yeah, we had a basketball hoop set up at mile 106 where every runner could compete.
Peter NoyesHOST
We're doing the same thing at Mammoth.
Peter NoyesHOST
Not quite sure where it's going to be yet.
Kevin GoldbergHOST
And, yeah, we're making this happen.
Kevin GoldbergHOST
So we'll see you out there with a basketball at some point and see how you do.
Kevin GoldbergHOST
It seems like the talent in the mammoth field for basketball is higher than it was for Cocodona, at least on paper.
Taryn ShafferGUEST
Like it wasn't that major, but because my friend... good old Dr. Hammond out in Provo because he is a podiatrist who also runs.
Taryn ShafferGUEST
He did Cocodona 250.
Taryn ShafferGUEST
He was more like, I know you're not going to like this, but I do want you in a boot and I do want you off your ankle for at least six weeks because I want it to heal properly.
Taryn ShafferGUEST
And I really respected that because in the moment, all I could do was laugh.
