## Resource

Jen Kurtz joined me on the podcast in August to talk about her creatine study on endurance athletes. She reached back out as she is in need for more runners to participate in her study that are doing the Looking Glass 100k race. If you are at all interested in this, and want to get an additional $250 in your pocket, please reach out to Jen for all the details. BUT, this was not the only reason for this podcast. Jen recently completed her very first 100 miler, and I wanted to dive into every detail. Join us as we walk through her training, her gear and her journey through this very memorable race. Little did I know what an impact her story would have on me. Her joy both in the difficult times and the celebratory ones is so palpable. The way she spoke made me feel as if I was right beside her enduring it all and soaking it all in. As I go into my next race, I will be repeating her mantra...I am strong, I am capable and I am made to do this. Thank you, Jen, for sharing your light.
