Aaron is a thru-hiker-turned-ultra runner who began running in 2022 yet has completed numerous 200+ mile races, including every Cocodona 250. If you have ever considered running a 200 mile race or want to learn secrets on how to, this may be the episode for you. Aaron explains how discovering ultra running on the Pacific Crest Trail and the appeal of aid stations and support drew him from hiking into racing. We dig into the value of being efficient at hiking, how Aaron avoids hallucinations and his sleep strategy to avoid zombie walking. Oh, and day 2 apparently is always the worst day for everyone in a 200.
