In the summer 2020 issue of Eat Clean, Run Dirty Magazine we take a deep dive into the 200-mile genera with an incredible article by David Infante titled A Journey Into The Self. I personally have not run or been present at any 200-mile race. I do have wild respect for the folks that do them and I notice they rarely stop at just one. It is something that lives in a runner’s blood and calls their name. Bring on the Bigfoot 200. The Bigfoot 200 traverses the Cascade Mountain Range with 42,000 feet of elevation gain in a 206.5-mile point to point course that begins at Mount St. Helens and finishing in Randle, WA traversing the Cascade Mountain Range. To better equip myself for this conversation, I invited a very special co-host, Ryan Chukuske. Ryan is a trail and ultra runner from Minnesota who not only is a Founding Member of Eat Clean Run Dirty Magazine but is the author of a book called Bigfoot 200, Because You Know, Why the #@&% Not? Together the three of us discuss what the human body and spirit goes through over the course of 200 miles in rugged country and why one can’t wait to go back. I got goosebumps when I first raid David’s race report. It’s vulnerable and gorgeous. You can learn more about the Bigfoot 200 by visiting Destinationtrailrun.com .
