## Resource

What does it take to rack up over 170 ultramarathon finishes while never missing a dance recital? In this episode, we sit down with the incredibly prolific John Calabrese (known to the running community as @breezytrailhead). John is famous for his packed race calendar, but behind the jaw-dropping UltraSignup stats is a masterclass in time management, dedication, and family. John opens up about how he balances the grueling physical demands of 24+ hour races with the joyful, high-energy demands of being a dedicated "Dance Dad." If you’ve ever struggled to find the time for a long run between family commitments, this episode is your ultimate guide to making it all work.
