Episode 10: Lauren Jones and Doing Things That Scare You

Lauren Jones is not stranger to challenging races in ultrarunning. She has completed the Cocodona 250 along with tons of other challenging races, and often places or gets a podium spot.

Listen to her incredible mindset of diving into things that scare her, and how that helps her get back up to run again even when faced with incredible challenges.
