Manage episode 422073496 series 2588705
Amelia Boone is a longtime pro athlete living in Colorado. Amelia is one of the most decorated OCR athletes ever, winning four World Championships across Spartan and Tough Mudder. She has also had a decorated trail running career over many years.

- Becoming an unsponsored athlete
- Her inability to enjoy her prime athletic years
- The balance between happiness and performance

- A lot more!
