Ultra Running for Normal People, embracing the world of trail running w/ Sid Garza- Hillman
Get pumped to hit the trails with Sid, the ultra runner who's changing the game for 'normal' people like us! In this dynamic episode, we are thrilled to bring you the story of a man who went from hating running to being a ultra trail runner and race director, creating an ultra he'd want to be apart of- close parking, later start time-- ya know the good stuff. Sid's passion for trail running shines through as he shares how he found his calling on the rugged coast of Mendocino and how he's helping others do the same. If you've ever felt like ultra running was beyond your reach, Sid's here to tell you it's not—and he's got the book to prove it.
Sid's philosophy is all about embracing the natural world and our innate abilities as humans. He dives into the mental and physical shifts that come with trail running, the importance of stress management, and how to approach training in a way that's fulfilling and sustainable. His upcoming book, "Ultra Running for Normal People," is set to inspire and guide anyone looking to embark on the adventure of a lifetime on the trails and beyond!
