Hey, I'm Mike. I'm almost 50, overweight, and training for a 100-mile ultramarathon. I'm not an elite athlete. I'm not fast. And I'm definitely not a running coach. But I've run multiple marathons, half-marathons, and completed a 50-mile ultramarathon. Now I'm trying to find out just how far a regular guy like me can take this. On this channel, I share the wins, failures, and lessons I'm learning along the way—running after 50, marathon and ultramarathon training, running while overweight, Zone 2 training, weight loss, and endurance. But underneath all of that, this journey is about something bigger: becoming healthier, stronger, more disciplined, and a better version of myself. I don't have it figured out. I'm figuring it out as I go. If you're a regular person chasing an unreasonable goal, you're in the right place.
