The Luckiest Man in Ultra Ballots: Max Naughton’s Western States & UTMB Double 🍀
Description
In this episode, Max Naughton talks us through the unlikely year he ended up getting into both UTMB and Western States (with just one ballot ticket..!).
While Western States turned out to be surprisingly runnable, UTMB became a 44-hour grind through storms, snow, and a rolled ankle he picked up two miles in.
Max shares how he used a 50/50 run–bike training split to build mountain fitness from the flat Midlands, what gear actually helped (and what didn’t), and how he kept going when things got properly grim. We also look back at his path from OCRs to Ironman to ultras, and what’s next on the cards.
A conversation about big goals, working through rough moments, and what can happen with a little bit of luck 🌠.
