In this episode of Run the Riot Podcast, we dive into the life and experiences of Isaac Barnoskie, an inspiring figure in the ultrarunning community. Known for his positive energy and encouraging spirit, Isaac shares his journey from an occasional runner to completing ultramarathons—walking! From tackling the Snake Run to walking a 100-miler at the Pumpkin Holler Hunnerd, Isaac's story is nothing short of motivational.

Isaac also talks about his recovery from back injuries, highlighting the power of walking and the importance of listening to your body. His shift from running to walking ultramarathons due to an injury reveals an impressive adaptation, achieving remarkable times and proving that endurance is as much a mental game as a physical one.

Join us as Isaac talks about his educational background in comparative religion, which has led him to question and explore the practical application of philosophical and religious beliefs in everyday life. This curiosity has deeply influenced his approach to ultrarunning and life, emphasizing action over mere thought.

A strong advocate for community and positivity, Isaac uses his platform to encourage and support others in their ultrarunning journeys, whether on social media or through organizing local races like the Hilltop Run. His approachable and inclusive attitude towards the sport is a breath of fresh air in the competitive atmosphere of ultrarunning.
