Courtney Boyle & Dawn Greenwalt | 2023 Cocodona Podcast: Episode 2

Dawn is an ultra runner who recently placed 2nd female at the Cocodona 250! Learn more about her experience of training and racing by tuning into this episode. Dawn shares more about herself below:  "I am an Ultra runner raising two teenagers and working full time as a nurse in the operating room and emergency room. I enjoy trail running and navigate this by running early mornings while everyone is asleep and before work. I feel very fortunate to have the ability mentally and physically to run ultras. I love motivating others, and I've found that my running achievements have given me the ability to do that.  I have helped form a local running group bringing athletes of all different levels together. We work toward growing relationships, friendships, and keep each other moving in a positive direction for whatever goal we are trying to achieve. I have been fortunate enough to help pace during a 100 mile race, and again will be pacing a friend during the Leadville 100 mile in August.  I focus on healthy living and love sharing things that I have learned regarding diet and exercise with others. Running and healthy living has given me an energy to be thankful for. I am blessed to be surrounded by positive relationships through the ultra running community! The energy is palpable during races, in a way thats indescribable." Questions we ask Dawn include:  How did you get started in running -- and ultra distances? How do you navigate (or balance) ultra training/racing with other aspects of your life? What led you to sign up for Cocodona 250? How did you go about training for this beast of a race (and performing so well, finishing 2nd female!)? In terms of sleeping and fueling during races, what did you find most helpful in terms of strategy? In terms of mental challenges during the race, how did you navigate those tough moments and find the encouragement to keep going? When it comes to women's sports (particularly ultra running), what do you feel needs to be changed, if anything? What advice would you give to your younger self? How about for a newbie in the ultra world? What does being a Strong Runner Chick mean to you?  Connect with Dawn: Instagram: greenwaltdawn Facebook: Dawn Stone-Greenwalt SPONSOR SHOUTOUT:  To Tanri!
