    Episode 76: Altitude Training, Berlin Marathon Prep & The Backyard Ultra
    2026/09/08
    Anthony and Zach are back for Episode 76 of Endurance State of Mind, and this week the guys sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about marathon training, altitude, ultramarathons, cycling, racing strategy, and the Mississippi endurance community.Anthony is currently in Breckenridge, Colorado, spending time at roughly 9,000 to 10,000 feet of elevation just weeks before the Berlin Marathon. The guys talk about what it actually feels like to train at altitude, including headaches, poor sleep, elevated heart rate, increased effort, and the challenges of trying to maintain normal training while your body is adjusting to less oxygen. They also discuss altitude acclimatization, the idea of “train high, recover low,” and whether hiking and running at elevation can provide useful aerobic benefits for marathon training.With the Berlin Marathon only about 20 days away, Anthony breaks down where he is in his marathon preparation, how he is feeling heading into one of the biggest races on his calendar, and what he is thinking about when it comes to pacing and fueling. The conversation gets into one of the biggest challenges of marathon racing: getting through the first 20 miles with enough energy left to actually race the final 10K. Anthony and Zach discuss the importance of patience early in a marathon, fueling properly, managing effort, and potentially using Berlin as a stepping stone toward the Rocket City Marathon later in the year.The guys also take a detour into professional cycling and the Vuelta a España, talking about Tadej Pogačar’s crash, injuries, racing at the highest level, and the role that luck can play in professional cycling. They discuss how a serious crash can affect a rider mentally even after the physical injuries have healed. Tom Pidcock’s incredible bike-handling skills and aggressive downhill racing also become part of the conversation as Anthony and Zach talk about just how much confidence and technical ability it takes to descend at the highest level of the sport.Back on the running side, Zach talks about his recent 5K race and how strategy and race execution helped him come away with a strong result. Instead of simply focusing on fitness, Zach explains how he approached the race mentally, battled with a younger runner, and used experience and positioning to his advantage. The conversation turns into a larger discussion about racing smart, learning how to compete, and the growing group of young runners coming through the Mississippi running community.One of the biggest topics of the episode is the upcoming inaugural Last Wolf Howling backyard ultra at Petal River Park on November 21, 2026. Anthony and Zach dive deep into what it takes to compete in a backyard ultra, including the traditional 4.167-mile loop, the 36-hour time limit, pacing, nutrition, caffeine, sleep deprivation, and the mental challenge of repeating the same loop hour after hour.The guys discuss the strategy behind running a backyard ultra, including why athletes may want to avoid running too fast early in the race and how the difference between a 45-minute lap and a 55-minute lap can dramatically impact how much recovery and sleep a runner gets. They talk about nighttime strategy, managing fatigue, eating and drinking enough to keep going, and the psychological battle that develops when the race becomes less about raw speed and more about consistency, patience, and the ability to keep showing up every hour.Anthony and Zach also compare backyard ultra performances and discuss athletes such as Mark Dowdle and Phil Gore, looking at the different strategies used by runners attempting incredibly long endurance efforts. The conversation explores why slowing down can sometimes be the key to going farther and how backyard ultras create a completely different type of endurance challenge than a traditional marathon or ultramarathon.The episode also highlights the Mississippi running and endurance community, the importance of local races, and the growth of the sport throughout the state. Anthony and Zach talk about the people who continue to push the local running scene forward and their plans to feature more runners, athletes, and members of the endurance community on future episodes of Endurance State of Mind.They also talk about future podcast guests, including larger names in the endurance world as well as local Mississippi runners and athletes. The guys discuss the challenge of balancing recognizable guests with the stories of everyday runners who are helping grow the sport in their own communities.Whether you are training for a marathon, preparing for an ultramarathon, interested in backyard ultras, getting ready for your next 5K, following professional cycling, or simply enjoy hearing honest conversations about endurance sports, Episode 76 has something for you.In this episode, Anthony and Zach cover:• Altitude training in Breckenridge, Colorado• Training and recovering at 9,000 to 10,000 feet• Altitude ...

  • Episode 75: How Brock Kelly Built a Life Around Running and Creating

    Episode 75: How Brock Kelly Built a Life Around Running and Creating
    2026/09/01

    In this episode of Endurance State of Mind, we sit down with Mississippi native, former Mississippi College runner, content creator, and entrepreneur Brock Kelly to talk about his journey from competitive high school and collegiate running to becoming one of the most recognizable running creators in Mississippi.

    Brock takes us all the way back to his introduction to running in Tupelo, Mississippi, his rise through the high school ranks, becoming Mississippi’s Gatorade Runner of the Year, and his time competing at Mississippi College. He also opens up about the pressure of competing at the collegiate level, injuries, learning how to handle failure, and the mental side of endurance sports.

    We dive deep into how Brock first picked up a camera and began documenting his running journey on YouTube, long before running content became what it is today. He shares how early videos, limited equipment, and countless hours of editing eventually led to opportunities with Tinman Elite and a summer in Colorado working alongside some of the biggest names in running.

    Brock also breaks down the story behind The Daily Mile, the Instagram series that exploded after he suffered a stress fracture and began documenting his return to running through swimming, cross-training, and eventually racing again. He talks about why vulnerability and consistency connected with his audience, how creating content became a form of accountability, and what it is like turning your own running journey into something that thousands of people follow.

    We also get into Brock's transition from collegiate track to the marathon, including his first marathon at Grandma's Marathon, the brutal conditions, cramping late in the race, barely qualifying for Boston, and what he learned from the experience.

    Beyond running, Brock talks about creativity, videography, building an audience, brand partnerships, authenticity, and his work with Over Everything Athletics. We discuss what it means to create with intention and how running, storytelling, business, and community can all come together.

    Whether you're a runner, marathoner, content creator, or someone interested in building something from the ground up, this is a conversation packed with lessons about consistency, creativity, failure, injury, ambition, and finding your own path.

    Anthony and Zach are back for another episode of Endurance State of Mind, and this time it’s just the two hosts taking a deep dive into everything happening across the endurance sports world. From incredible ultramarathon performances and backyard ultras to cycling, marathon training, upcoming races, and updates from some of the athletes we’ve had on the podcast, there is a lot to talk about.

    The guys start by breaking down Aimee Warnke’s incredible performance at the Bigfoot 200, where she battled deep into the race and ultimately moved into the lead around the 170-mile mark. After previously sharing Aimee’s story on Endurance State of Mind, seeing her return to Bigfoot and put together such an impressive performance makes this one of those endurance stories that is impossible not to follow.

    They also talk about Last Soul Ultra, one of the backyard-style ultras that has Anthony and Zach seriously considering taking on a backyard ultra themselves. The conversation eventually turns to Mark Dowdle, his incredible backyard ultra performances, and the upcoming 2026 Big's Backyard World Team Championship. What makes backyard ultras so fascinating? How far can someone like Mark Dowdle actually go? And what happens when you put some of the best backyard ultra runners in the world together?

    The conversation also covers Phil Gore and Project 168, Leadville 100, and some of the other major endurance events that have captured the attention of runners and fans recently. The guys talk about the growing popularity of following endurance sports from a distance, how social media and live race tracking have changed the way fans experience ultramarathons, and why it feels like there is always another incredible race happening somewhere.

    Cycling gets some attention too, including updates on Grayson Taylor, his recent racing, and the crossover between running and cycling. Anthony and Zach also discuss the differences between the two sports and how racing experience, bike handling, training, and consistency can all play a role when a runner makes the jump into competitive cycling.

    And, of course, there are plenty of Endurance State of Mind life updates. Anthony talks about his upcoming Berlin Marathon, the guys discuss the possibility of finding a local backyard ultra, and they look ahead to what's coming next for both the podcast and their own endurance goals.

    Whether you're into ultramarathons, 200-mile races, backyard ultras, marathon training, trail running, cycling, endurance racing, or simply the stories behind the people who push themselves way past what seems possible, this episode has a little bit of everything.
