In this episode of NomadWolf, we are joined with North Face ultra and trail runner, Vlad Ixel. You've probably seen his incredible Instagram content doing alternative types of trail running specific workouts or come across his hydration tablet company Bix. We managed to catch up with him for a quick hour to go over how he manages everything from using his addictive personality to his benefit, racing to a high degree to co-founding a company with his wife, Silke.
It's no surprise that there's probably something interesting and different about you if you're playing within this ultra marathon world. For many, ultra running might be an addiction that could be actually doing us some good, which means that we've overcome some pretty poor habits. Vlad's story is somewhat similar except for maybe how after his second marathon he jumped right into a 230 km+ desert stage race. We dive into that, his mentality, some of his memorable DNF's, lessons from racing and why he eventually co-founded Bix Hydration.
Overall, Vlad's secret to life is quite simple and inspiring. Think long term, go all in but operate on the consistent little things every day. There's a lot of sacrifice involved, but in the end it prepares you for whatever you're building to.
We hope you enjoy this episode and hope you use your additive personality to take somewhere incredible.
