Trail Running comes up in 3 chapters across 3 episodes of The Jonnie Jensen Show, from June 2020 to January 2023.
The 2023 calendar for Team Super Dad includes the Dirty Rotten Scramble, a cross-country trail run featuring water obstacles and various distances up to 30K. Other scheduled community activities include firewalking events, a summer barbecue, and the Men of the Year awards in December. These events are designed to foster camaraderie and celebrate personal achievements among the group's members.
Johnny and Glenn recount their experience participating in the Dirty Rotten Scramble, a 10K obstacle course race in Tenton. They describe the team dynamics of running with other community members and the physical challenges of the trail run despite a lack of specific training.
Ultra Marathon Mindset and Skipping the Marathon
McGerhin challenges the idea that one must run a standard marathon before attempting an ultra marathon, noting that he ran several 80K races before his first 26.2-mile event. He describes the mental shift required for long-distance trail running, which involves managing pain and expectations over 8 to 14 hours of continuous movement.
