What does it actually take to keep moving when you’re completely on your own?
Allison Powell unpacks her experience completing an unsupported Tahoe to Yosemite FKT, the mental preparation that helped her navigate three days alone, and the behind-the-scenes work that went into Rewritten, the documentary following Jeff Garmire's Appalachian Trail FKT.
This conversation goes far beyond big-mile accomplishments. Allison shares practical lessons on decision-making under fatigue, preparing for the unknown, nutrition and logistics, and approaching difficult efforts with a growth mindset.
You’ll learn:
How to prepare mentally for the moments when your decision-making starts to deteriorate
Why creating decision trees before a race can preserve valuable mental bandwidth
How to break intimidating distances into manageable pieces
What unsupported efforts can teach you about preparation and self-reliance
How to turn mistakes and unexpected challenges into future advantages
Why giving yourself room to grow may be one of the most important parts of ultra training
