Ultrarunning legend Pam Smith kicks off Season 3 of the UltraRunning Magazine Podcast just one day after learning that she’ll be burning it up, literally, at Badwater later this year. Pam shares her thoughts about running through the desert, setting four American age group records at the 2021 Desert Solstice Track Invitational, competing for Team USA and much more, including the unsexy side of ultrarunning. Pam is retired and lives in Salem, OR, with her husband and two teenagers.  Photo: Howie Stern Thank you to our episode sponsor, Drymax Sports. Subscribe to UltraRunning Magazine at ultrarunning.com
