In this abridged episode, Paul and Howard discuss Howard's return to trail running after a two-year hiatus. Howard shares his journey of overcoming long COVID, which left him significantly deconditioned, causing multiple injuries upon his return to running. Despite these setbacks, he's managed to push through the challenges, regain his fitness, and complete a recent race—and did it in heavy rain. Howard reflects on his experience, training, and future race plans with an emphasis on perseverance and avoiding the push to the breaking point. The conversation also touches on managing nutritional needs during long runs and the importance of listening to one's body.
