I'll Have Another with Lindsey Hein Podcast

My guest today is Katie Schide, one of the top ultra runners in the world. In 2024, she made history by winning both the Western States 100 and UTMB, securing a rare double and setting a new course record at UTMB by over 20 minutes. Her victory at Western States marked a major breakthrough after finishing second at the same race in 2023, and her second win at UTMB (she first won in 2022) further solidified her place among the elite in the sport. Her consistent high-level performances also include a sixth-place finish at UTMB in 2019.We dive into Katie’s training and life as a professional ultra runner. She lives in a remote part of France with her partner, where she enjoys the solitude and beauty of the mountains. Much of her training involves running, skiing, and biking, with a unique emphasis on ski mountaineering (or “ski-mo”), a form which serves as a demanding cross-training tool that she implements into her training during the winter months. It’s fascinating to hear how a top athlete integrates skiing into her routine, maintaining peak fitness during the off-season.Katie also holds a PhD in geology and shares how her academic background influences her approach to life and training. Beyond her impressive racing resume, which includes podium finishes at nearly every major ultra, she has set her sights on future challenges, including the iconic Hardrock 100.Sponsored by The North Face, Katie is an athlete you won’t want to miss following. You can connect with her on Instagram at @katieschide for more updates on her career and adventures in the mountains.What we talked about:9:00- Living and training in a remote area14:25- Including skiing in her training and what winter training looks like24:30- The past two years of Western States performances33:45- Winning UTMB and winning Western States in one year39:50- Her coach and what she attributes her running successes to52:05- The rise of women in the sport of trail and ultra running53:00- Breaking the course record at UTMB1:02:20- End of podcast questionsShow notes:Katie on Instagramthemarmots.runBengal Spice Celestial Seasoning TeaA Court of Thorns and Roses seriesConnect with Lindsey: Lindsey on InstagramLindsey on TwitterSupport our sponsors:LagoonUse the code “Lindsey” for 15% off your order2BeforeUse the code “Lindsey” for 30% of 20 packs plus free shipping

We’ll return to some more coaching episodes later, but for now, we’re so excited about this series!!Today, I have the honor of speaking with two-time Olympic gold medalist Kristen Faulkner. If you’ve been following cycling this year, you know her name. She made headlines by winning gold at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, marking Team USA’s first women’s road race medal in 40 years! Plus, she became the first US woman to win Olympic gold in two different disciplines at the same Olympics—what an achievement!Kristen’s journey is fascinating. She grew up in Alaska, attended Harvard, and then worked as a venture capitalist in New York City. Her entry into cycling was in 2017 when she attended a free introductory cycling clinic for women.In our conversation, we dive into her mindset, her path to making her first Olympic team, and what it felt like to earn those two gold medals.

In today’s episode, I’m excited to welcome back Kara Winger, a four time Olympian in the javelin. This summer, she competed in her fifth Olympic trials, and it was quite the journey for her. Despite placing in the top three at the trials, she didn’t qualify for the Paris Olympics because she hadn’t yet met the Olympic standard. Kara shares her thought process behind deciding to aim for the standard during the trials rather than trying to qualify beforehand. She also shares about her decision to come out of retirement this summer to try to qualify for her fifth Olympics.I’ve always enjoyed interviewing field athletes in track and field, as they often don’t get the spotlight they deserve, and Kara is one of my favorites. She’s at an exciting crossroads in her career, and I can’t wait for you to hear about all that she is looking forward to ahead. Also, a fun tidbit—Kara had the honor of being a flag bearer for Team USA during the closing ceremonies at the Tokyo Olympics, which is just amazing.
