On this episode of Le Down we spoke to two time marathon Olympian and now Ultramarathoner, Reid Coolsaet.
Reid has always loved to run. From cross country in elementary to high school on the track he's always loved pushing himself and competing.
Now that his elite marathon days are behind him, Reid is ready to take on the Ultra scene. And with a first place finish in the 110km Quebec Mega Trail race, the future is looking bright.
