25 March 2026, 8:44 pm - 38 minutes 35 secondsHospitalized After A Run: The Biggest Lessons Learned and an Update
A few days ago, I ended up in the hospital after a run with atrial fibrillation (AFib) — and while I’m doing okay now, the experience shook me up and taught me some lessons that I think every runner needs to hear. In this episode, I’m sharing exactly what happened, what the doctors told me, how I’m doing now, and the biggest takeaways I’m walking away with from the whole experience.
This one is personal, but I also think it’s important. Because as runners, it’s really easy to convince ourselves to push through things, ignore warning signs, or downplay what our body is trying to tell us. This experience reminded me that getting help when something is wrong is not weakness — it’s wisdom.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What Happened During And After The Run That Sent Me To The Hospital
- What AFib Is And Why The Doctors Took It So Seriously
- Why Asking For Help Right Away Can Be The Smartest Move A Runner Makes
- The Biggest Mental Battle I Faced When Returning To Running Afterward
- How Fear And Hesitation Can Show Up After A Scary Health Experience
- What The Doctors Told Me About Returning To Training
- The Biggest Lessons I’m Taking Away From This Experience Moving Forward
If this episode resonated with you, I hope it helps a ton.

19 March 2026, 6:05 pm - 57 minutes 11 secondsWhat Mountain Biking Can Teach Ultrarunners About Fear, Confidence, and Racing Free | Lottie Brinks
Lottie Brinks is back on the Everyday Ultra Podcast, and this one goes way deeper than just race results.
In this episode, Lottie shares how mountain biking has become a huge part of her life — not as a way to build fitness, but as a way to sharpen her mind, improve her confidence, and help her show up better in running and in life. We dive into the connection between fear and performance, how learning high-risk skills can translate to racing more freely, and why doing something purely for joy can actually make you a better ultrarunner.
This is a powerful conversation about growth, presence, confidence, and the mental side of performing at a high level.
In this episode, we talk about:
