Lessons from Badwater 135: Run Better in Heat, Mindset Tips, and How to Improve Your Finish Times

Badwater 135 is one of the toughest ultramarathons in the world.


The race is a 135 mile footrace through Death Valley, California, where temperatures have gone up to 130+ degrees at times.


There is no shade on the course, it's extremely hot, and tests even the strongest of runners.


I was out at Badwater this year crewing and pacing, and I learned so many things from seeing the runners take on the course.


Some things we discuss on this podcast:


  • How to run better in the heat
  • How to prepare for hot races (even if you live somewhere cool)
  • How to stay mentally strong, even when it gets tough
  • Why you shouldn't worry about your age
  • How to get adapted to the heat
  • The one thing you can do to instantly improve your ultramarathon times
  • And much more!


Thank you so much for listening!
