Women's White Mountains 100 FKT with Cassidy Carroll

<p>This week I sat down with Cassidy Carroll after she set the new women’s unsupported White Mountains 100 FKT in 46 hours and 39 minutes. The ultimate finishing touch to an epic year for her. Earlier this year she became the first women Northeast Ultra 8 Gold Skyrunner as well as setting the self-supported FKT on the Hut Traverse picnic. We talk about both of those efforts and we dive deep into her WM100 push. Such a crazy story, racing for the FKT but also racing against a nor&#39;easter, powering through big adversity during the effort, and hallucinations hitting so hard they unlocked childhood memories. Oh and also she is your 2026 Bubbas Beer Mile Champ. Talk about range. </p><p>HOW TO FIND CASSIDY:</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/cass.carrolll/</p><p>https://www.strava.com/athletes/50379846?oq=cass</p><p>CORSA LIVE ENDURANCE TRACKING: </p><p>I live streamed my WM100 effort on Corsa&#39;s live tracking.

Its a high stack height but I like that for running fast down steep descents. The Speedgoat 7 is my favorite version so far. It&#39;s lighter, and slightly reduced stack from the old version and I have been loving it.</p><p>La Sportiva Prodigio Pro: <a href="http://rei.pxf.io/0GB7gP" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠rei.pxf.io/0GB7gP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> OR <a href="https://amzn.to/3T1u0Qi" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3T1u0Qi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>  </p><p>My top pick for a super shoe in technical terrain. Light, fast, and has really good grip. Mid tier stack so fairly stable but also has some cush to
