#29 - Resilience with Lisa Smith-Batchen

We continue our series in resilience with is Lisa Smith-Batchen.  Lisa is a world renowned, elite ultra runner, Ironman competitor and adventure racer.  Lisa has finished dozens of extreme races and is a woman of many “firsts”.  She was the first American to win the Marathon des Sables, which is a stage-race through the Moroccan desert.  Lisa has not only finished the Badwater Ultramarathon 10 times, but has also won it twice.  By the way, the Badwater Ultramarathon is considered to be one of the toughest races in the world, and Lisa is a member of the Badwater Hall Of Fame. 

She is also the first and only person to have run 50 miles a day in 50 states in the USA in 62 days!

Lisa is a proven coach and motivator whose knowledge of health, fitness and nutrition has helped hundreds of individuals achieve their specific goals.  She shared some of her stories as an athlete and as a coach.   This conversation was certainly inspiring to me and I hope it is for you as well. 

Join her at Dreamchasers for an amazing fitness class!
