Ever wonder how a 360 lbs. football player lost 160 lbs and became an ultra runner? Take a run with 34 year-old ultra runner and race director Drew Brazier, of Portland, OR. In this episode we not only talk about Drew’s journey into trail and ultra running, but how his journey has morphed into his new adventures in race directing. We learn about his new events in Southeast Idaho known as the Palisades Ultra Series. Drew is also an acomplished psychologist with his own “Healthy Made Easy” podcast. We talk about the connections between psychology and ultrarunning and how ultra runners use the sport to cope.[podcast src=”https://html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/6696844/height/90/theme/custom/autoplay/no/autonext/no/thumbnail/yes/preload/no/no_addthis/no/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/9d09d2/” height=”90″ width=”100%” placement=”bottom” theme=”custom”]
