In the latest Uphill Athlete podcast, coach Will Weidman flips the script on Alyssa and interviews her on her experiences at the Dragon’s Back Race in Wales. The Dragon’s Back Race is a 6 day stage race that runs the length of Wales covering 380km and over 17000m on completely unmarked terrain. Will and Alyssa dive into Alyssa’s race results and running prior to Dragon’s Back and the mindset, training and nutrition changes she has made in the past year. They then break down the ups and downs of the race and the pressure cooker that is stage racing. If you’ve been eyeing a multi-day adventure or event, tune in for the good, the bad and the ugly of its unique challenges.
