In this episode of HappyCast, we dive into the incredible journey of Addy and her triumphant finish at the Javelina Jundred. Known for its party atmosphere and relentless desert heat, Javelina pushed Addy to her limits as she tackled high temperatures in the 90s, fully exposed trails, and the goal of breaking the coveted 30-hour mark. With determination and a carefully executed plan for each loop, Addy proved that grit and preparation are the keys to conquering an ultra.
Stephanie shares how Addy played a pivotal role in her own ultra-running journey. From joining the Dallas Dirt Runners to finishing their first 50K at Running the Rose and even starting races like Born to Run and Lake Murray together, their friendship has been one of growth, perseverance, and learning. Addy’s experience at Javelina was about more than just the finish—it was about embracing challenges and overcoming past DNFs to redefine her limits.
We also hear from Steve, who takes us inside the unique party atmosphere at Javelina’s base camp. With costumes, music, and the vibrant energy that sets this race apart, it’s clear why Javelina is a favorite among ultrarunners. Whether you’re chasing big goals, finding inspiration in your running community, or just looking to enjoy the journey, this episode will leave you motivated to hit the trails.
