Running really helps me regulate but if you’ve ever delved into the world of ultramarathons, it’s another level!

Enjoyed this episode! I’ve noticed several episodes mention running and autistica. Future episode?? Ultramarathoner here.

I totally agree! I did cross country in high school and loved it because, unlike team sports, I didn't have to be well-coordinated or socialize much! LOL I added the idea to our list of listener suggestions!

Oh no I wrote like 2 paragraphs on how you should check out Jackie Kashian who is amazing and then accidentally lost the comment before submitting 😭

In summary, I highly recommend checking out her specials “I am not the hero of this story” and “staykashian.” She only makes passing reference to being autistic in her special “this would make an excellent horcrux” but she talks at length in all of her specials about her need to always be reading a book, gaming, not knowing how to date until online dating came around - where she met her game designer husband- and just so much more. She also has a podcast called the Dork Forest where guests come on to talk about their special interests!!!
