If I could do only one race, @upchuck50k would always be the one. That 30 mile stretch of the Cumberland Trail is gorgeous. You get rock overhangs, boulder strewn creeks, steep trails, pine, rhododendron, and all the leaves and rocks. Then you get to cheer everybody else in and hang out with all the cool kids after slapping the finishCAN. Thanks @chadwamack , @matt.sims , and @wtrails for all the work in putting on this classic event. 📷 @fred_dossThat face when Ray-Jay touches you and you don’t know where his hands have been. Excited to go run in the woods along the Cumberland Trail this weekend. Even more excited for roll call on the Magic Bus. @upchuck50k #runnrcLink to my race report for Grindstone is in my profile. May you have ultra-endurance in reading it. #runnrc #myspringenergy #grindstone100That was brutal. Steep, technical, and rocky would be the best three words to describe Grindstone. I finished in 20:58 for 7th place. If you ever need someone to crew for you at a race or in life, @marsilly123 and @sjacobson4 are the all-time greatest. #runnrc #myspringenergy #grindstone1002019 Races

Pinhoti 100 Miler
I could frame the outcome of Pinhoti one of two ways. Option one- I went sub 24 in my second 100 miler, shattered my preconceived notions of what I was capable of, and had a great race. Option two- I … Continue reading

Stillhouse 100k
