He picked up running. Once he did a half marathon, he realized he was a pretty good runner. Mike suffered a broken back after a ski accident–following this, he really got into ultra running. 3 weeks into his broken back with a body brace on, he went out and ran half a mile. He felt bad, but it didn't hurt, so he started running every day. He recovered very quickly and began running 10+ miles every day. Trail running really appealed to him and he got hooked. He is also the winner of the Ultra Running Triple Crown: he had the fastest cumulative time over the Bigfoot 200, the Tahoe 200, and the Moab 240 in 2017. This was his breakout. He ran just under 7 days. TAKING YOUR BODY TO THE LIMIT This is ultimate fat adaptation-you can still eat fatty foods to run while fat adapted. He originally started running fat-adapted because he had digestive issues while running doing anything else. Mike usually only allows himself to eat in a 6 hour window each day. The keto diet works very well for ultra athletes. He is "bonk-proof" and has a strong stomach. Mike eats a lot of meat and eggs, and before a race will also have an orange. He makes sure he's all stoked up on fat, and will have a TBS of coconut oil, too. He also finds day-to-day benefits like mental clarity and healthy weight maintenance.
