Cole Brecka: The Great World Race, 100-Mile Ultras & Why Hydrogen Water is the Ultimate Recovery Tool | TUH #242
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
Preparing for the 100-Mile Ultra
Cole details structured training, coaches Matt Johnson and Andy Glaze, and the shift from blind to disciplined preparation.
Most people quit when their body screams stop, but what happens when you push 62 miles beyond that breaking point? My son, Cole, took us through his journeys in running 100 miles through Area 51’s brutal Nevada desert and the Great World Race, and what unfolded wasn’t just an endurance test. It was a live experiment in how far we can push human performance when recovery science meets mental fortitude. As both his father and the scientist monitoring his biometrics, I’ll show you why the vast majority of athletes aren’t overtrained, they’re catastrophically under-recovered.
