Dreama Walton is a mother, full-time employee, and an ultramarathon runner. This amateur athlete goes on the road to compete in American's biggest ultramarathon: The Western States 100. As she draws inspiration from painful experiences in her youth, she finds herself getting fueled by a community she never expected. We explore the "dark place" of an ultramarathon - which is often a battle of the mind, and what comes up emotionally while running. Dreama didn't have the best role models in her childhood as she experienced neglect and abuse; but discovered the running community as a positive influence. She talks about her sister who had Spina Bifida and could never walk... and how she now "carries" her while she runs. Dreama is a relatable person who takes struggle head-on, to face life's challenges.
