Everest 135 Ultra Marathon with Trevor Cichosz

Overcome and Run

Ultra marathon athlete and former World's Toughest Mudder champion Trevor Cichosz joins me this week to tell me all about his experience at Everest 135, an intense 135-mile ultra marathon where he took third place.

We begin with Trevor telling me all about how he heard of this race, all the race prep required and the training (and lack thereof) that led up to it.

He tells me about the race prep in the days leading up to the race, and walks me through his entire race experience, from the issues to the checkpoints, to the altitude and all that climbing. Trevor shares some wild stories, from hallucinating a village to holding onto donkeys so he wouldn't get kicked off the treacherous mountain trails.

We talk about how it compared to his race across Scotland last year, and Trevor talks about the lessons he learned and what he'll do to prepare next time.

We end by talking more about ultra marathons, what's next on his schedule, and his next crazy adventure.
