  • Meditation, Mindfulness & the Ultra Runner- Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself
    2026/08/29
    100 Miles Starts in the Mind: Meditation, Mindfulness, Visualization & the Power of BeliefWhat if your biggest limitation isn't your body—but the story you've been telling yourself about what your body can do?In this episode of Running Miles with CHD, we explore meditation, mindfulness, visualization, mental rehearsal, manifestation, intuition, and the idea of becoming the person capable of achieving the goal you've been dreaming about.For an ultra runner, the race begins long before the starting line—with preparation, belief, attention and the ability to respond when things get difficult.We explore how mindfulness can help athletes step away from negative thought spirals instead of fighting them. Recognize what's happening, release the judgment, and reconnect with the task in front of you.When you're at mile 60 thinking, "I still have 40 miles to go," what happens when you return your attention to your breathing, your body, your surroundings and the next step?We also explore visualization and mental rehearsal. Instead of only imagining the finish line, what if you mentally rehearse the difficult moments—the fatigue, doubt, weather, pain and moments when you want to quit—and practice how you'll respond?We dive into Dr. Joe Dispenza's Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: becoming aware of automatic patterns, changing habitual thoughts and emotions, creating a vision of your future self, and using meditation and mental rehearsal to practice becoming that person.We also explore manifestation and the idea of experiencing a future before it happens. Where does manifestation overlap with visualization, expectation, goal setting and behavior—and where does it become a philosophical or spiritual belief rather than established science?And what about intuition or the "sixth sense"? Is it something beyond conscious thought, or could some experiences of intuition come from the brain recognizing patterns and information we've accumulated?Most importantly, this episode is about how to apply these ideas to ultra running:• Morning meditation and visualization• Creating a picture or goal reminder• Visualizing your race and your future self• Mentally rehearsing difficult sections• Mindfulness during long runs• Using breath and attention when things get difficult• Building a consistent meditation habit• Staying present instead of focusing on miles remaining• Turning "I can't" into "What can I do next?"The goal isn't to convince you that thinking about a finish line guarantees you'll reach it.The question is:What if believing you can become the person capable of doing something is the first step toward becoming that person?Train your body. Train your mind. Prepare for adversity. Visualize the future—and then come back to the present moment and take the next step.Dr. Joe Dispenza — Books, meditation resources and Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself:https://drjoedispenza.com/Joe Dispenza on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/6P28vDZvRGOftyqrdo4u8SDr. Tara Swart — Neuroscience, visualization and manifestation:https://www.taraswart.com/Vishen Lakhiani — Meditation, visualization and personal transformation:https://www.vishen.com/Deepak Chopra — Meditation, mindfulness and consciousness:https://www.deepakchopra.com/This episode discusses scientific research alongside philosophical and spiritual ideas.

  • Behind the Races; Virginia Adventures with Dan Pulskamp
    2026/08/25

    Virginia Adventures: The Races, Trails & Community Behind Central Virginia's Ultra Scene

    What makes a great race? Is it the course, the challenge, the aid stations—or the people who create an experience that keeps runners coming back?

    In this episode of Running Miles with CHD, Josh talks with Dan Pulskamp, owner and race director of Virginia Adventures, about the races, the trails, the challenges of race directing, and the community behind the events.

    Virginia Adventures was created in 2014 with the goal of bringing high-quality trail races to Central Virginia while creating a family-oriented experience through partnerships with Virginia State Parks, local trails, businesses and the community. Dan serves as race director, course designer, timer and organizer, while his family also plays a major role behind the scenes.

    We talk about the Virginia Adventures race lineup, including:

    🏃 Willis River Fat Ass — a challenging winter trail adventure with creek crossings and tough conditions.

    🌲 James River Trail Runs — one of the most scenic races in the series, with 10-mile, 50K and 50-mile options.

    🚂 Night Train Ultra Marathon — the signature event, featuring nighttime running across the historic High Bridge Trail.

    🚂 Freight Train Ultra Marathon — a 100K, 50K and half-marathon experience on the historic rail trail.

    🔥 High Bridge Challenge — a unique challenge combining Night Train and Freight Train in the same calendar year.

    🌳 Dogwood Ultra Marathon — a timed loop event with longer-duration options for runners looking to push their endurance.

    🎃 Pawpaw 5 & 10 Miler and Piedmont 8-Hour Run — approachable events that welcome newer trail runners and families.

    The conversation also explores Virginia Adventures' philosophy of inclusion, volunteer-powered races, adaptive athletes, veterans, families, local businesses, race logistics, weather challenges, aid stations and what it takes to put on an ultramarathon.

    If you're looking for your first trail race, your first ultra, a 100K challenge, or simply a beautiful place to run, Virginia Adventures has something worth exploring.

  • Keto for Ultrarunners- What Should You Actually Eat with AI?
    2026/08/22
    🥑 Keto & Ultra Running: Fueling Your Body From the Kitchen to the TrailWhat should a low-carb or ketogenic ultrarunner actually eat—not just during a race, but every day?In this episode, we take a deep look at whole-food nutrition for the ultrarunner, from the grocery store and kitchen to the trail. We explore nutrient-dense foods such as beef, chicken, salmon, eggs, low-carbohydrate vegetables, avocados, olives, nuts, seeds, berries, cheese and other minimally processed foods.We discuss why foods such as pumpkin seeds, walnuts, pecans, macadamias, hemp hearts and fatty fish can provide concentrated calories, protein, healthy fats and important micronutrients while remaining relatively low in carbohydrates.But eating keto isn't simply about adding more fat. We also explore the importance of getting enough total calories, protein, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals and fluids, particularly when training for 50K, 50-mile, 100K and 100-mile events.We look at practical ways to build meals around whole foods:🥚 Breakfast🥩 Lunch🐟 Dinner🥜 Snacks🏃 Pre-run nutrition🔄 Post-run recovery🎒 Long-run and race nutritionWe also discuss meal preparation, grocery shopping, batch cooking and how to make a whole-food approach sustainable during a busy training schedule.One of the biggest attractions of keto for endurance athletes is increased fat oxidation. Research consistently shows that low-carbohydrate/ketogenic diets can substantially increase the body's ability to use fat for fuel. However, greater fat burning does not automatically mean better race performance. Recent systematic reviews have found mixed or neutral effects on endurance performance, while some evidence suggests high-intensity and repeated hard efforts can be more challenging when carbohydrate availability is low. We discuss the idea of metabolic flexibility—being able to use different fuel sources according to the demands of training and racing rather than treating nutrition as a one-size-fits-all system.We also discuss electrolyte changes during carbohydrate restriction, GI tolerance, inadequate calorie intake and the possibility of unintentionally under-fueling. The goal isn't to promote keto as the perfect diet. It's to help runners understand what the research says, where the uncertainties are, and how to experiment responsibly during training.For ultramarathoners, the International Society of Sports Nutrition recommends an individualized, periodized, food-first approach and emphasizes adequate calories and protein; it also notes that evidence supporting ketogenic diets specifically for improving ultramarathon performance remains lacking. We also examine practical trail foods and preservation. Nuts and seeds are naturally portable, while foods such as cooked meat, eggs and soft cheeses require careful temperature control. USDA guidance states that perishable foods should generally be refrigerated within 2 hours—or 1 hour when temperatures exceed 90°F. Remember: Always test your nutrition strategy during training before race day. What looks perfect on paper may not agree with your stomach at mile 50.Sports Nutrition & Ultrarunning:International Society of Sports Nutrition — Ultra-Marathon Nutrition Position StandKeto & Endurance Research:PubMed — Ketogenic Diets and Endurance Runners Systematic ReviewPubMed — Low-Carbohydrate/Ketogenic Diets and Aerobic PerformanceWhole-Food Nutrition:Harvard Nutrition Source — Healthy FatsHarvard Nutrition Source — Vegetables & FruitsFood Safety:USDA Food Safety BasicsThis episode is for educational purposes and isn't individualized medical or nutrition advice.🏃‍♂️ From the Kitchen to the Trail🔥 The Fat-Adaptation Question⚠️ Don't Forget the Risks🧀 Real Food on the Trail📚 Resources
