Summary
What a fun time I had getting to know Devon Brodmyer! A bright young man, just tapping in to the ultra realm, and already finding so much success. A big take away for me through our conversation was the importance of surrounding yourself with those that will encourage you, motivate you, and see more in you than you can see in yourself. His mindset was to learn from those with experience instead of trying to tackle something new on your own. Devon has been running since a very young age and continued running at Brevard College. Through inspiration from his college coach (Jordan Tager), and by soaking in all the knowledge he could from the experience of his friends (Randy Elliott and Sheridan Byers to name a few), Devon love for running reignited out on the trails. After crushing his first ultra at Ridge To Rails last year (where he came in 4th), Devon has been on the podium in every single race since. Most recently, he was 1st overall at the Mount Mitchell Heartbreaker 50 miler. Devon Brodmyer is just getting started.
