## Resource

Luke has been only participating in ultras since 2023, heck his first marathon was in 2022. But despite being relatively new to the sport, Luke has achieved a ton of success, completing over 40 races since 2023, including five 100Ks, seven 100-milers, and even winning the Cowboy 200. In this episode, Luke shares his background, training regimen, and insights into what makes him so successful in ultra running. We also take a look at his upcoming A race in May of next year, the Cocodona 250. As someone who lives in Florida, we cover his plans for getting in some vert for that race and his goals for it.
