About this episode
In this episode of the Run the Riot Podcast, I had the privilege of catching up with my friend and seasoned ultrarunner, Chris Lyle. It’s always a blast chatting with someone who truly gets the unique world of ultrarunning.
Chris opened up about his incredible journey—from starting as a marathoner to now having 12 - 100-mile finishes under his belt, with no signs of slowing down. We shared a few laughs reminiscing about race memories and dug into what it takes to tackle iconic courses like the Arkansas Traveller 100 and High Lonesome. Along the way, we explored how ultrarunning challenges not just your body but also your mindset and outlook on life.
Whether you’re chasing your next big goal or just love hearing inspiring stories, you won’t want to miss this one.
