Episode #35: Testing Limits from Comrades to Vegas with John Armbrust

TeamRogue athlete John Armbrust joins us at the Running Rogue studio to talk about his experience at the largest and oldest road ultramarathon in the world - the Comrades Marathon in South Africa. He covered 87 kilometers in just over 9 1/2 hours to earn a coveted Bronze medal. John talks about finding his limits at 80K and how he mentally and physically gutted out a grueling final 7K to earn his finish.

John is also a part-time poker player, recently competing in the World Series of Poker main event in Las Vegas, where he has finished in the top 100 three times. Giving us a little inside scoop on this No-Limit Texas Hold-em Event, John talks about the mental side of poker and how it relates to the mental side of running.
