Ben shares invaluable insights into the power of mindset when tackling life’s toughest races—whether it’s a 200-miler or the challenges we all face daily. He discusses the lessons learned from crewing, coaching, and racing while juggling his latest ventures, including launching new trail races and his unique "crew for hire" service.
