## Resource

In this episode, Drs. Drew Brannon and Gabby Caviedes unpack Rachel Entrekin's historic Cocodona 250 win as a lens for understanding performance under extreme pressure. From broader-than-self goals to micro-recovery, problem-solving under fatigue, and the power of "delusional belief," they explore what ultramarathon racing can teach us about preparation, resilience, and staying composed when we hit our limits.
