GRP #144 From Canadian Trails to Western States: Ryan Smook's Journey

GRP #144 From Canadian Trails to Western States: Ryan Smook's Journey

45m

Join us on the Gotta Run Podcast as we chat with Ryan Smook, an ultramarathon runner from Grand Prairie, Alberta, who shares his incredible journey of getting into the prestigious Western States Endurance Run. Ryan talks about his beginnings in the ultrarunning community, inspired by friends and facing the notorious Canadian Death Race.

Discover how Ryan tackled the grueling Sinister 7 and The Divide 200 and how he remarkably secured his spot at Western States with just four lottery tickets. Ryan also touches on the support from his family, the ultrarunning community, and preparing for what will be his first international race.

Here is Ryan...
