Bob Dion is the founder of Dion Snowshoes, a company based out of Bennington Vermont.  He is also a Veteran Ultrarunner who has an incredible list of wins and records in very long distance races.  If you are a runner this discussion will blow your head apart.  This is a guy that used to run 190 mile weeks for training and has run 50 miles in less than 6 hours.   He tells some epic stories of his first 100 mile attempt, trying to win the Western States 100, and what it was like running long distance races before most people had ever heard the word “Ultramarathon”.
