New course record at the Leadville 100 Miler in 15:12:30, 14 minutes ahead of last year. What just happened?! We are still processing it all, and this episode shares every detail while it’s all fresh in our sleep-deprived minds.
2 weeks ago, David said there was zero chance that he was going to race Leadville. He was still processing the very public failure at Western States. He felt like he just wasn’t ready.
Megan had other ideas. This episode tells the story of a surreal day that still seems a bit like an impossible dream that came to life, including sharing the final 23 miles together.
David would have estimated the chances of this day at 1 in 10,000. But maybe love changes the odds in ways that science can’t always account for.
Also, Megan predicted the exact time down to the minute. Because of course she did.
We love you all so much. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there for the full journey.
And remember: failure is cool.
