Sally McRae

Yeah.

Yeah, so it says 90 grams per hour, but we were talking about Sally McRae, who'd done TDS at the UTMB, the same race that Mark had done, and she's a prolific ultra runner.

Yeah.

And she was saying she can't, she's tried all different things, but she can't consume more than 50 grams of carbs an hour.

He thought it was an amazing idea.

I sent him the Sally McRae video of the Western states with Nick Bear.

And he was like, this is incredible.

They did such a good job on that video.

They might not be able to bring people, so they have to rely on people they don't...

In fact, Sally McRae this year, she was a last-minute entry, um, and she basically took a crew of a, another lady who unfortunately couldn't run 'cause she had a, a knee operation.

And it's the first time they'd met was literally the day before the race.

That's intense.

Like Miami, you know, do really cool runs down to, um, like South Beach or, um, Key Biscayne.

Los Angeles, um, just when I came back from, we're, ran on Huntington Beach, which was really cool and, uh, yeah.

I think Sally McRae lives in Huntington Beach, so I was thinking maybe I might see her.

[laughs]

Oh.

My birthday is June 30th, and so in 2024, I was sitting on No Hands Bridge taking photos as the sun was coming up and got a birthday hug from Sally McRae.

So I mean, I've peaked.

[laughs]

... with, from my kids.

Uh, we were watching Sally McRae's, um, oh, I forget the title of it now.

But w- her, um, YouTube video on Cocodona, and they-

Mm-hmm

... came down and they saw that, and they're like, "Mom, what is this?" And I was like, "Oh," you know, I explained to them.

Uh-huh.

I was like, "This is Sally McRae.

She's ran her first 250-mile race." And at the time Sally was 40, uh, 45, and, um, so, you know, I was 41 at the time.

I would... total imposter syndrome.

Like, when I went to register, I was, like, seeing people like Harvey Lewis, Sally McRae.

I was like, "What am I doing here? W- what is Laura Watts? How have I managed to get myself, um, here?"

[laughs]

And I hope that that continues.

I've actually heard Sally McRae talk about that earlier in her Nike sponsorship days.

She was told that she didn't look like a runner because she had really strong looking legs.

And it took her a while to embrace that.

Yes.

[laughs] And of course, Sally McRae.

[laughs]

Coming off a huge TDS finish.

Of course, Travis and Harmony back home.

That's it for this show.

On behalf of Topher Gaylord, Kim Gaylord, Sally McRae, I'm Debo.

Peace out.

Sure.

If we could get, like, Sally McRae on the show or something like that, we could do a podcast with her, and then, uh, and then we'd have justifiable reason to, to follow some of these places, so they could come watch that podcast.

But considering-

Yeah
