Take a run with Sherpa John as we discuss his journey to his first ultra distance run, his first official ultra, and what ultra looked like in the early 2000s. Joining him in this episode is HPRS Director of Human Experience Hollis Lyman as they talk about how far the sport has evolved, what’s changed and what hasn’t, and the many challenges runners face then and now.
