The Leadville 100 in Colorado is an epic ultra marathon. Training for this race includes mental preparation, including reframing failure.

My guest on this podcast attempted the Leadville 100 three times before completing this daunting endeavor.

Danielle Lewis is a flight nurse, ultra runner, mountaineer, and musician. She loves the mountains and loves long races, even though the she didn't start out that way.

In this episode, Danielle and I chat about her amazing journey to finishing the Leadville 100 and lessons along the way, including:

• Have a purpose for each workout and get a coach
• Incorporate strength training
• Dial in nutrition
• How to keep in mind the long term goal through short-term suffering
• Why failure is what makes life interesting
• How to manage your inputs 
• How not to put limits on yourself
