    Episode 139: Revisiting the pursuit of excellence with Western States champ Abby Hall

    This week, ahead of Western States this weekend, we're revisiting and re-airing our conversation with last year's champion Abby Hall — about growth, grit, and what it means to chase excellence over a long period of time. They talk about: Abby's evolution through a decade in the sportHow she found her footing in ultras and her relationship with the 100-mile distanceAnd, of course, the long road and many setbacks before last year's win What does it mean to care deeply, race boldly, and keep showing up? There's a vulnerability to racing at the highest level and a tension women often face between being competitive and being perceived as too much.
