Hayden Hawks | Racing Jim & Zach, Western States Ambitions, The Mamba Mentality
Athletes Mentioned
My guest on this episode is Hayden Hawks, one of the greatest talents in the sport of American ultrarunning.
Today, we explore a myriad of topics including his competitive mindset, his professional approach to ultrarunning, what it was like competing against the likes of Jim Walmsley and Zach Miller, how ball sports athletes influenced his own approach as an endurance athlete, stories about his faith and how it shaped him into who he is today, what it will take to win Western States and much, much more.
He was an absolute pleasure to talk to and I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed having it!
