Mason Wright is not your average ultrarunner. He’s a gym owner, a former 285-pound lineman, and the man behind Worn Legs, a poetic tribute to what it means to suffer on purpose.

In this episode, Mason sits down to unpack the story behind his legendary run across Utah — 421 brutal miles in 9 days — from injuries and windstorms to moments of spiritual clarity with nothing but a headlamp and a horizon.

We cover:

•  How Mason went from zero to ultras after tearing his posterior tib
•  Why doctors told him he’d never run again — and why he ran anyway
•  What it takes to build something meaningful (a gym, a run, a life)
•  •The mental war of endurance and the beauty found in worn-out shoes

Mason’s story will inspire you to keep going when everything in your body tells you to stop. Whether you're chasing your first 5K or planning your own epic, this is a masterclass in suffering well.

Getting After It is for those who. want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.

You are just getting started. Keep Getting After It.
