#151 | Davy Crockett - Ultrarunning Historian and Adventurer
Davy Crockett is an Author, Historian, and long-distance runner who hosts the Ultrarunning History Podcast. In the span of 17 years, he’s finished 105 100 mile ultra races. Davey started backpacking at a casual pace with little to no fitness. He was self-motivated to learn how to adapt and improve his speed and ease while walking and running. This blossomed into a love of traveling lightly and moving quickly through adventurous places. Davey combined his experience writing books on history with his love of ultrarunning by starting the site ultrarunninghistory.com There you can find his podcast, articles, the ultra running hall of fame, and links to historical references.
