033 - Between The Miles - The Woo Woo of Ultrarunning
In this solo episode of Between the Miles, Scottapants gets full control of the mic—and things get weird (in the best way). From burning sage in the parking lot to chanting mantras mid-race, he dives into the “woo woo” side of ultra running: mindset, meditation, mantras, and the occasional runner’s high that feels like cosmic alignment.
He shares stories of how mindfulness and spiritual practices transformed his training, recounts a marathon weekend powered by Om Mani Padme Hum, and breaks down techniques like Isha Kriya and Run Mindful. It’s funny, it’s heartfelt, and it might just convince you that aligning your chakras at mile 87 isn't such a crazy idea after all.
Whether you meditate to monk chants or MMMBop, this one’s for anyone curious about the mental magic behind the miles.
