This weeks study is more of an analysis on just one man. Usually a sample size of one doesnt mean much but this is about 4 time indoor rowing world champion, 92 years old Richard Morgan.

Last episode where we talk about the Ultra we promise. Jerred and Joe talk about the ultra and things Jerred took away from it and possibly what to apply to future endurance events.
This week is a special episode. Jerred has been training for his Ultra for months now updating everybody on his progress. Well the time has finally come and he recorded his experience during his race so this episode is sort of a recorded live experience from his 50K with Mark Bishop.
Jerred has his ultra race coming up very soon so we talk about that. Then we really get into Jerreds new Continuous Glucose Monitor and all for the feedback, ins and outs of that and more.
