Join host Nick Meraz, an amateur ultra marathon runner obsessed with pushing limits, and his skeptical co-host Jarett Horton, who can’t quite grasp why anyone would run for fun. Together, they bring a fresh, funny, and unfiltered take on the world of running. From wild race stories and training mishaps to interviews with what Jarett calls "nuts people"—those who run for fun, competition, and every other wild reason—they dive into the highs, lows, and everything in between of the running community. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just here for the laughs, this podcast is your backstage pass to the craziness of running culture.

The Ultra Running Journey of Manika Gamble–Namibia, Rhabdo Recovery–Chasing the Grand Slam

Episode 34 — Manika Gamble

Manika Gamble is an ultra runner, world traveler, and adventure-driven athlete who refuses to let setbacks define her. From completing her first ultra in Namibia with blistered feet, to battling and recovering from rhabdomyolysis, to chasing one of the most prestigious achievements in endurance — the Grand Slam of Ultrarunning — her story is one of courage, curiosity, and pure heart.

We talk about her mindset, her lessons from recovery, balancing life and running, the joy of exploration, and her mission to become the first African American woman to complete the Grand Slam.

This one is inspiring on every level.

Run Scared.
