E52 Nicola: Casual, or exceptionally dialed in? - a podcast by Hilary Spires: Trail Runner, Coach, Sports Junkie

Nicola grew up an athlete, but didn't discover her natural talent for running until she was a young adult. She faced some serious adversity while playing basketball at college, battling eating disorders and bad relationships, but was able to find her way out through running. She began on the roads with little training, and eventually realized that running a 3 hour marathon is not normal! Nicola now has an impressive list of accomplishments including 11th at Western States, and the female FKT on the SCT.
