    Joe Rogan: "Her demon's a quiet demon. It's there." Dauwalter: "I don't like to fail and I want to finish everything I start." [chuckling] "Is that a demon?" Joe's obsession that ultra endurance athletes must have demons is so frustrating. It's not unlike the "tortured artist" trope. Just because some great athletes and artists battled addiction or some other "demon" does not at all indicate all athletes/artists must. Get over it, Joe, you are insulting her accomplishments! Don't over complicate it: she has unbelievable willpower and she works really hard.

    This is sooo inspiring to me. As a 56 almost 57 yr old trail runner looking to run my first ultra I take Courtney on my runs. When I hit my hardest and when I feel like quitting, I always tell my self: “You have the heart and soul, the mental strength, and the passion of Courtney! And I always pull through! She is the Michael Jordan and the Kobe of trail running!

    Courtney I really love your spirit to crush everything what's in front of you 🙏 You're the person that started the fire within me for ultra running and that I can do it to becaue my mind went like that: When a small and thin looking person like she can run so far, then I can too. So and because of that fuel I really started running on a daily basis and after ten months of just regular slow running I ran a 50 miler complete on my own because covid was going nuts. I finished it in 10 hours and 26 minutes, and it was literally the hardest thing I had done in my life so far. It roughed me up pretty bad 😄 I have to admit that my math that I can do it too was hilarious. I underestimated it pretty good 😄 Thank you, Courtney, for being my light in this dark world because running changed everything in life for me 🙏 Through you I discovered my purpose for being here on this earth 🙏 So thank you again Courtney. Someday we will meet 🙏 I'm sure of that. I love you Courtney for your being. Thank you 🙏

    Yeah that’s definitely creepy. Your concentration is split and unconscious/sub is letting you see…what? Imagination? Why would she think of that? She knows it’s not a hallucination but she describes seeing it. Why would she think of a woman churning butter? Creepy
