About this episode
Text us a comment or question! My guest today is Gene Dykes – Gene is a 73 year old world record endurance runner. Gene took up ultra-running – which is basically anything longer than a 26.2 mile marathon – late in life and holds multiple world records at multiple distances. Join us this week to hear how Gene ran three sub-3 hour marathons at age 70, and how at age 73 he’s trying to run a little further – or a little faster – every week, every month, and every year. Gene gives us a fascinating glimpse into the world of extreme endurance and ultra-running, and even shares some great tips for any of you out there crazy enough to take up ultra running after 50.
