Episode 133: Natasha Swartley - Foot Care, Self-Doubt and the Tahoe 200!
Tasha Swartley, AKA "Thor," probably has the most unique set of skills out of anyone we have ever talked to. Not only is she a retired Navy Veteran who made a living loading bombs on jets, but she is also a Wilderness certified EMT who specializes in treating foot and other medical issues for ultra trail athletes. She has made a name for herself as the Destination Trail Races EMT and probably helped get a few of you busted up 200 mile runners out of the aid station and back out on the trail. And she has recently launched her own independent company as the Thor Trail Race Medic so keep an eye out for her at an ultra near you. Plug into to hear all about the crazy things she has encountered as a trail medic, what tips she has for us to avoid having to spend time in her chair at our next race, and also how she is preparing to take on her own first 200 mile run at the Tahoe 200 in 2025. Enjoy the episode!
