E64: Manika Runs / The 155 Mile Grand Slam Ultra Marathons and Nomad Life

On this episode of The Do Epic Shit Today Podcast I chat with Manika, an inspiring human who has set out with the goal of accomplishing a 155 Mile Ultra Marathon Grand Slam - in ONE calendar year. These four races take place all over the world; Namibia, Mongolia, the Atacama Desert in Chile and Antarctica. Currently Manika is half way through with her goal, she’s completed two (Namibia & Mongolia) out of the four. Her next race will take place later this year in Antarctica and Manika and I chat about what she’s looking forward to, her reasons to set such a massive goal and all of the logistics required for just her next race alone - like mandatory gear, the actual journey itself to get to Antarctica and some of the amazing components that makes this race so amazing. In addition, Manika recently transitioned from living the “comfortable” apartment life, to life on the road. She and I discussed and recorded the podcast whilst she sat with the most amazing background - just her radiating positive energy, basking in nature and living life to the fullest.
