Potentially no TnF'er will read this interview.

Any Ultra runners???

I thought I would take a crack at this:

Hell yeah!

Good general interview and I think it's would be a good one for non-ultra runners to read to understand the sport and respect it a little more (ie. change the subject line to pull them in!).

I haven't read a whole lot about Torrence as I got into Ultras after his big year. I think it would be interesting to have a followup at some point with him that includes more of the specific aspects (ie training, nutrition, etc), discussion of some of the current top ultra runners and major races.

Ultrarunning is growing in leaps and bounds and it's pretty neat to see solid 2:13 marathoners go head to head with the top 100 mile guys at distances like 50miles.
