Find Yourself: A Conversation with Ultra Trail Runner Tim Tollefson

Jun 17, 2023

In this episode we talk with one of America's top performing ultra trail runners Tim Tollefson. Tim shares lessons he's learned over his career from racing the US Olympic Marathon Trials to the rugged trails of UTMB (ultra trail mont blonc). We discuss his internal struggles with body dysmorphia and how he has gone from being so self conscious that he would hide from other runners out on the trails to courageously creating community in the form of his own race the Mammoth Trail Fest. Tim's story is a beautiful demonstration of how the struggle we experience in ourselves can manifest into love, acceptance, and empathy for others.
