Run Rabbit Run 100 Race Recap: Storms, Strategy & Mental Flexibility
Description
What happens when a hundred-mile race turns into a snowstorm survival test? In this episode, Zoë and TJ break down their very different experiences at the Run Rabbit 100 — from a top-five finish in brutal conditions to making the hard call to DNF.
You’ll learn how ultrarunners can adjust goals mid-race, why safety should always come before ego, and how to recognize when “excellence” means stopping instead of pushing through. We also dive into ultramarathon-induced corneal edema (yes, your vision really can blur mid-race), hydration mistakes that derail performance, and the mindset shifts that help athletes stay resilient when plans fall apart.
🎙️ Topics Covered:
Mental flexibility when races don’t go as planned
The decision-making process behind a DNF
What corneal edema is and how it happens in ultramarathons
Hydration and fueling mistakes to avoid
Building toughness and resilience through consistent training
