013 - Janice Anderson - From the Track to the Trails: GUTS Founder
Today the Runbum talks with Janice Anderson.
Janice is the epitome of inspiration to switch from the track to the trail.
Janice was a fast track athlete from a young age; running her first marathon in the 8th grade at the rocket city marathon! She progressed to running fast 100k road races on the USATF team, setting multiple records and wins. She quickly progressed to one of the best ultra distance runners in the Southeast.
She was the first woman to break 17 hours in a 100mile trail race. Held multiple course records, and was a 5 time member of the 100k National Team.
With her work at USATF and the Atlanta Track Club, she founded GUTS, Georgia Ultrarunning & Trailrunning Society, which has been running strong since 2004.
This episode is packed full of inspiration, training advice, and stories of the progression of ultra running. Sit back with a cup of Tailwind, and your favorite gel, and enjoy!
GUTS
Founded in 2004, Georgia Ultrarunning & Trailrunning Society (GUTS) is a non-profit, all-volunteer, club of fun and adventure loving runners whose mission is to encourage and promote trail and long distance running. GUTS holds races of various distances through out Georgia. We also have a weekly group run, a longer distance bi-monthly run and the eagerly anticipated GUTS End of Year (EOY) party, er, meeting! It’s easy, it’s inexpensive, and it’s worth it.
