How to make the most of a finite life (w/ Oliver Burkeman) 40:22

There’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

She Runs Ultras is about (yup, you guessed it) running ultras. Lots of other running podcasts out there are full of gear & race reviews and interviews with the experts telling unrelatable stories about their record breaking times and super human feats. Now…don’t get me wrong, I’ve learned some great stuff from those podcasts...But what about those of us that aren’t getting paid to do this?Those of us that are mid to back of the pack runners?And those of us that have never won a damn thing? What was out there for us? Yeah, I couldn’t find it - so I decided to make it! And it just so happens that I’m getting geared up to start training for some races in 2021. So throughout this series, I’ll share what really happens when a typical, non-professional runner takes on the challenge of running an ultra. Got some races planned for this year? Let’s train together.From the emotional & physical ups and downs, to the details of my actual training plan, and the excitement (not to mention nerves) that build as race day gets closer...I promise not to hold anything back. So whether you’re already a member of the ultra community or if you’re just ultra curious...Hit subscribe and let’s do this!

From riding 3 hours to get to the start, to losing one running buddy & picking up another, to dealing with the heat and lack of water, to getting lost, taking a shower mid-race 🤯, and crossing the finish line 6 days later.

You’ve heard of bears, moose, and maybe even the occasional skunk sighting on a run...But have you ever been chased by a woodchuck? 🫠 In this episode, I’m telling the wild (and slightly ridiculous) story of how a peaceful 10-mile road run turned into a full-tilt downhill sprint —with a woodchuck in hot pursuit. We’re talking: The exact moment I realized I was being chased What went through my head mid-sprint (hint: it includes ER scenarios) A truckload of witnesses and a yellow lab 🛻 My post-woodchuck escape plan And why this encounter did not happen on the trails (important PSA!) PLUS: Why you shouldn't let this story scare you away from trail running... And how you can get in on a future episode with your own weird/funny/crazy wildlife story from a run. I want to hear them all! 🎧 LISTEN IN to hear about: The fastest I’ve ever run without meaning to What I learned about woodchuck top speeds Why this is now my #1 craziest wildlife encounter And how I managed to escape without a scratch (or a ride back up the hill) 🔗 WATCH THE ORIGINAL VIDEO I POSTED Adrenaline-fueled, slightly incoherent, but totally worth it 🐾 Got your own story?

You missed a workout. Your knee feels weird. You forgot your gels. Cue the internal freak-out ... right? In this episode, we’re talking about something that every runner deals with—making things a way bigger deal than they actually are. Whether it's a bad run, a missed session, or some mid-race drama, it's so easy to spin out and convince yourself that your entire race is doomed. (Spoiler alert: it’s not.) I'll share a couple stories that will illustrate my point (both in day-to-day life and in ultra running.) If you're training for your first ultra—or your fifth—and you're constantly questioning “is this a big deal?” ... this one’s for you. ⭐️ GET THE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT 🔥 JOIN THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS COACHING MEMBERSHIP 🛍️ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM…

What is your limit? In this tough-love episode, I’m sharing a question that’s been bouncing around in my head as I train for Moab 240—and why it might just change the way you think about your running (and your life). We’re talking self-imposed limits, fear of failure, DNFs, and why most runners never even get close to discovering what they’re truly capable of. If you’ve ever thought “I could never do that…”—this one’s for you.

In this episode, I recap my day at the rainy, rocky, and rooty Drummer Hill 50K—a small, looped trail race in New Hampshire with surprise crew support, soaking wet trails, and a whole lotta mud. I break down each lap, from smooth sailing in lap one to survival mode in lap four (spoiler: it rained *a lot*). We talk slippery bridges, mental battles, perimenopause aches, and why this race was all about practicing—not racing. Plus, a shoutout to bug spray, quesadillas, and the power of showing up. ⭐️ GET THE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT 🔥 JOIN THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS COACHING MEMBERSHIP 🛍️ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM…

At the gym the other day, someone asked me: “Got any advice for a fat guy who wants to start running… asking for a friend?” 😄 That sparked a convo about something I always teach runners—whether you’re training for your first 5K or your first 100-miler: 👉 Start with walking. 👉 Build from there. 👉 Use the Walk/Run Gradient. In this episode, I’m breaking down my favorite strategy for building endurance without wrecking your body in the process. We’re talking about: Why walking workouts absolutely count What people get wrong about “time on feet” How to use the walk/run gradient to level up safely Why this applies to every distance, from 5K to 200M This is the foundation I use with clients inside my She Runs Ultras coaching membership—and honestly? It works at every level. 👀 Visual learner? Check out the gradient graphic on Instagram or Facebook [@sherunsultras] 📬 And make sure you’re on my email list for a new membership option launching soon!

What if the only thing standing between you and your big, scary goal… was the question you’ve been asking yourself? In this episode, I’m digging into one of the most powerful mindset shifts I’ve made as a runner and a coach: asking better questions. You’ll hear how I used to sabotage my own progress, why “Why can’t I do this?” is the worst , and how to reframe your thinking so you actually move forward. If you’ve been stuck, plateaued, or in full-on beat-yourself-up mode lately… this one’s for you. 🚨 Plus!

In this episode of She Runs Ultras , I’m diving into the topic of racing ultras close together —specifically, why I’m running two 50Ks just four weeks apart , how I’m managing my training in between, and what I recommend if you find yourself in a similar situation. Last week, I shared the behind-the-scenes of my Bloodroot 50K finish (spoiler alert: it was a grind but worth it!). Now, I’ve got another 50K on deck for next weekend , so I thought it would be super helpful to talk through: Why I’m doing two races so close together How I’m adjusting my training in the 4-week gap A recent convo with a client who’s racing a 50-miler and a 50K back-to-back —and how her “I need another long run!” mindset might sound familiar (and why I disagreed) 💡 Want a 1:1 Coaching Power Hour? I’m opening up a few 60-minute strategy sessions for women training for ultras who want support but aren’t ready for full membership.

In this episode, I’m taking you inside my first 50K of 2025 — the wild, wet, and wicked Bloodroot Ultra in Pittsfield, Vermont. Spoiler alert: it rained for 10+ days before race weekend, so the course was less "trail" and more "swampy obstacle course." From overflowing rivers and knee-deep mud to surprise cutoffs and surprise aid station visits from my husband, this one had everything. I talk gear (spoiler: I was overpacked), mindset, and the moment at mile 20 where I had to make a tough decision: quit or keep pushing. You'll hear about: The Spartan-inspired terrain (minus the man-made obstacles) Slippery bridges, sketchy climbs, and how *not* to preserve dry feet A race that almost got the better of me — and why I kept going anyway If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to keep moving when the fun is gone and the mud won’t quit, this one’s for you. 🎧 Tune in now for the full story. ⭐️ GET THE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT 🔥 JOIN THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS COACHING MEMBERSHIP 🛍️ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM…

Today's episode is the long awaited recap of the Southern States 200 race back in March.

In this episode you'll hear my conversation with Sarah as we rehash everything from start to finish (literally!) I even convinced them to do some *voice memos* to help document the process. And, if you'd like the full experience, head over to my profile page on Instagram (@sherunsultras) and click the very first story highlight (titled: SS200) and you can watch the race from my perspective (in real time).
