Emkay Sullivan is a professional trail runner with a long list of accomplishments in both sub-ultra and ultra competition. Most recently however, she took to the roads in the New York City Marathon, where she won the women's field of the mass start event! She had such a good time that she's coming straight back for another World Marathon Major, lining up with the pro-field of the 2025 Boston Marathon!
In this episode, Lauren and Emkay discuss her origin story in cross country and track, post-collegiate competition in the marathon and the 2020 Olympic Trials, and discovering a passion for high intensity sub-ultra racing. Emkay is the co-host of The Sub Hub Podcast, which has played an integral role in bringing short course trail racing to the attention of a broader American audience.
At the same time, she has been exploring her own potential in longer distances - placing second at the 2024 Canyons 100k, earning and ultimately turning down a Golden Ticket to Western States.
Before turning her sights to Boston this Spring, you can find her racing the Black Canyon 100k in February - aiming to earn another Golden Ticket, that she won't turn down this time!
