"Camille Herron drinks beer while shattering 100-mile run world record"

That headline caught my attention a year ago. 

I clicked on the article and was astonished to learn that this ultra runner averaged 7-minute 38-second miles to break the 100-mile race record by more than an hour. 

And she did it while stopping to drink a bottle and a half of Rogue Dead Guy Ale, which was supplied by her husband and coach. 

"It was magic," she said. “It settled my stomach and I had mental clarity.”

That's just the beginning of Camille's astonishing accomplishments, which includes setting the record for fastest marathon while wearing a superhero costume (2:48) and winning the prestigious Comrades ultramarathon. 

At age 37, she's just getting started. She's aiming for more records up to an including a 1,000-mile race and a new coaching camp that she's launching with her husband. 

In this episode we talked about her getting sponsored by Rogue Ales, fueling up on Taco Bell, her research on the science of recovery and why she runs twice a day and so much more.
