Meet Reese David Jones | Ultra Runner and Triathlete Extraordinaire
We’ve got a lovely young gentleman from Utah by the name of Reese David Jones joining us today who is a runner, a tri-athlete, an all around fitness fanatic, and has a professional career on the side making a living as a salesman. Reese ran 10 marathons in 10 days, which blew both Katie and Stuart away and is hard to fathom, but that’s just the kind of man he is. Listen to this fascinating conversation Katie and Stuart had with a guy who is young of body, but mature of mind and spirit and who had some great wisdom to share with us all.
Ultra running and how he developed an interested 1:00
Public speaking 7:15
10 marathons in 10 days, grieving for his grandfather 12:20
Injuries 14:30
Charities, treating hearing loss 22:45
Bubbly and taking a step back from running 30:45
If you want to get into running 32:45
“If you wore a cast for 20 years, your arm would obviously atrophy. When you’re wearing these shoes from the day you’re about 3 years old because your parents think they’re cute, and you’re in this foot cast, you don’t have the opportunity to use the 20+ muscles in your feet. So many problems could be solved if we had a better foundation.” 7:13 @reesedjones
