Take a run with Faith Raymond, a 53 year old ultrarunner from Groton, CT. In this episode we hear how Faith transitioned from endurance horse rides, to ultramarathons. We briefly discuss the history of endurance riding and ultra, and what it’s like to run with the horses and ride alongside the runners. Then, Sherpa John and Faith dive into the topic of inclusion in our sport, and some of the challenges we face with some race directors making decisions that alienate, and denigrate, certain social groups.
