Andy Glaze on 300 Weeks of 100-Mile Weeks, Moab Redemption, and What Ultra Running Really Means
Everyday Ultra
How Andy Chooses Races
Andy outlines his three-pronged approach: big challenging races, work schedule fit, and proximity.
In this episode, I’m joined by one of the most influential and genuinely kind humans in the ultrarunning world: Andy Glaze.
If you’ve ever seen Andy’s emotional Moab 240 finish, watched his weekly 100-mile streak unfold, or followed his journey across the biggest ultras on the planet, you know how much heart, courage, and consistency this man brings to the sport.
We dive deep into:
• His emotional Moab 240 redemption and what that finish truly meant to him
• What it was like to run Javelina 100 ONE WEEK after Moab — and still go sub-24
• The real story behind his upcoming 300-mile week to celebrate 300 straight 100-mile weeks
• Why fear is a necessary part of big goals — and how he uses it instead of avoiding it
• How he chooses his races each year (and how you should too)
• The highs and lows of UTMB, Leadville, Cocodona, Crazy Mountain & the Arizona Monster
• Why he’s leaning more into crewed races — and how that changed everything for him
• His upcoming book, race schedule, and what he’s building next in the running world
If you need motivation… if you need a reminder of what’s possible… or if you just want to hear from one of the most authentic voices in ultrarunning, this episode is for you.
Huge thank you to Andy for coming on the show!
