Ep 27 - Gretchen Talks... Ultra-Running?

Gretchen talks women in… ultra-running? Yep!

But first, Pete and Gretchen recap their trip to Washington wine country. Without wine in front of them, the couple recounts the wine and food experiences with a group of friends in the Columbia Valley of Washington. A good time was had by all. Too much of a good time? Maybe, but all worth it.

Pete talks about his amazing 10-mile run on the Columbia River and the impact it has on his appetite. Fat-adapted or not, expending a lot of energy makes you hungry.

Finally, the couple tackles an interesting subject – are women better than men at ultra-running? The conversation is inspired by an article in Women’s Running UK called, “Why Women are Better at Ultra Running.” Gretchen recaps the article and the couple discusses the merits behind it. Pete is especially intrigued by the mental aspects as they help him gain insight into Gretchen’s thought process on goals.
