Ultra Stories – Episode 58: Sheryl Wheeler’s Two Decades of Performance

Take a run with Sheryl Wheeler, a 54 year old ultrarunner from New York’s Catskills. Sheryl has been running ultras for nearly two decades, amassing top 3 finishes at some of the Beast Coasts most formidable events; Massanutten, Hellgate, Escarpment, and Manitou’s Revenge. She has performed at a top level without ever owning a GPS watch, adhering to a strict diet, or even following a single training plan. In this episode we hear about Sheryl’s adventure into ultra, her many accomplishments, the mantras she follows, the importance of mentoring, and how the back of the back is tougher than the front.
