At the age of 48, April had the best running year of her life, setting personal bests in the mile, 5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, 50K, 50M, 100K and even the 100M. That 100 mile personal best, also just happened to give her the overall win for the Yeti 100 with a time of 15:42:00. Join us as we talk about that incredible performance at Yeti, the importance of zone 2 training, nutrition and even her upcoming race at the Canebreak 200. Which, if you have been paying attention so far, will be her first 200 and we are looking forward to seeing how that race goes for her. Special shoutout to her TUFF run club in Raleigh!
