I met Scott Drehs at Orangetheory in Carmel, IN not long ago, and was captivated by his story. Now in his 50s and managing a very demanding job in the corporate world as a VP of Major Accounts for a publicly-traded company, Scott took up endurance sports just 5 years ago in 2015. His first race was a 5k that he remembers vividly - everything. hurt. But that finish line feeling was so strong that he kept going back for more and used training and running as a way to prepare himself physically and mentally for climbing glaciers with his friend in Oregon. Fast forward to today, and Scott has completed 50 races in just the past two years: everything from mud runs to Spartan races to trail races and even a 50k ultra. He uses racing to develop his mental strength and to excel in his career. Scott and I had a blast reliving some of his war stories from the trail and talking about how racing has changed his life for the better these past 5 years.
