In this episode, we sit down with our good friend, Shannon Howell, and her husband Ken to discuss the Western States 100.
Shannon took 13th female and 26th overall in a stacked field of runners. This year's western states saw only a 66% finishers rate and there were 15 females in the top 30 including 3 in the top 10. The women crushed it this year.
We discuss how the race went for Shannon along with how the crew and pacers faired out on the course throughout the day. Ken, Shannon's 2 boys, and myself (Alex) were all with Shannon at Western States. We share our experiences while following Shannon throughout the day.
We surprised Shannon with a celebration party and recorded this episode live at FH2 cigars in Simpsonville, SC. There are a few loud moments so please be aware of that.
We did have live question an answer from our live audience at the end so be sure to stay tuned for that at the end of the podcast.
We did run a little long but we could have probably talked about this for 5 more hours.
So sit back and enjoy!
