Mika Thewes on Winning Bigfoot 200 and Strategies for 200-Mile Ultras

What does it take to consistently nail 200 mile races? With so many variables in play over the course of that distance, it pays off to have a solid strategy to help you cross the finish line and do your best at these races.

And our guest today is someone who not only has their 200-mile strategy down, but she also has utilized it to recently win the Bigfoot 200 and set the course record there on her 5th finish of the rugged race!

Today, we’re chatting with Mika Thewes who is an ultrarunner with an accomplished resume in the 200+ mile territory. With wins at Bigfoot 200 and Tahoe 200, a podium finish at Cocodona, and even tons of wins and podiums at sub 200-mile races, Mika has had tons of success in her running career over the years.

In this episode, Mika shares the stories and takeaways from her win at this year’s Bigfoot 200, essential strategies and tips to nail your 200 mile race, and how mobility and biking play a role in her training to help her get to the start line physically and mentally ready.

Huge thank you to Mika for coming on the show!
