Ep127 - Mikey Dimuantes - UTA 100km Champion

We catch up with Mikey after his astonishing run of 9:01 to take the win at Ultra Trail Australia 100km. Mikey details the preparation, mindset and logistics that go into creating such an epic performance. We also get an extremely detailed insight into the specific nutrition, hydration and caffeine strategies employed throughout his race.

We get to hear where it all began for Mikey and in a real 'This Is Your Life' style we wheel out his high school chemistry teacher, Scott 'Theon' Hazleton to get into the details.

We chat about the success of Mikey's training group, the Capital Cowboys, the merits of a post race Mountain Culture and talking smack with Killian Jornet!

Enjoy!
