Could YOU run 70 miles a day for over a month? 😳 In this episode of the I Don’t Know Running podcast, we dive into the world of FKTs (Fastest Known Times), highlighting the legendary Appalachian Trail—2,190+ miles of rugged terrain from Georgia to Maine.
We break down what an FKT actually is, the difference between unsupported, self-supported, and supported runs, and how runners like John Kelly, Scott Jurek, and Jennifer Pharr Davis have etched their names into endurance history. John Kelly is currently on the trail right now attempting to beat the overall supported record—yes, LIVE tracking is available!
We also share our own homeownership woes, why van life sounds more tempting by the day, and how running keeps us grounded through it all.
🏃♂️ Featuring stories, data, and even some friendly backyard trail dreams, this episode will inspire ultrarunners and casual joggers alike.
