In this episode of HappyCast, we’re excited to welcome Roberto Gonzalez, who recounts the incredible experience of pacing blind runner Jeff Hardaway to his 100-kilometer finish at the infamous Habanero 100. Known for its scorching heat and brutal sandy terrain, the Habanero 100 is one of the toughest ultra races in Texas. Held in mid-August, the race kicks off at noon, challenging runners to endure soaring temperatures, making every step through the sand an extreme test of endurance and willpower.
Roberto and Jeff talk about their extensive preparation leading up to the race, including the unique challenges of training for a course like Habanero. Roberto shares his perspective on pacing Jeff, navigating through the heat, and maintaining a steady rhythm in some of the most physically and mentally taxing conditions. Jeff’s determination to finish the race is nothing short of inspiring, as he pushed through the obstacles with unwavering focus and resilience.
