It’s been a few weeks since my trip to Colorado and my DNF at the High Lonesome 100. Since I only managed 38 of the planned 100 miles, I don’t really have much of a race report to put out there. In fact, here’s a pretty accurate race report – I got my ass kicked. […]
If I look back on 2021, I would probably have to admit that it was a mostly successful year of running for me. I completed my first 100K on one of the tougher courses in the U.S. and also ran a 50K PR right before Christmas. I also overcame some mental and emotional challenges that […]
You’d think that I had a pretty awesome year if I need two posts to show all of my favorite photos of 2021. But, like the rest of you, I just managed to do a few fun things sandwiched around pandemic-fueled misery, and I took just enough photos that I can’t pick one or two […]
The Photos app on my phone has been sending me notifications for “Year in Review” videos that it automatically creates based on some weird algorithm that compiles what it thinks would be my favorite photos of 2021.

It’s been almost two weeks since I finished the Never Summer 100K in Gould, Colo., on July 31, and I’m still struggling to put it into words. I’m constantly asked, “How was the race?” and the best I can respond with is that it was hard and beautiful. While both are true, those words fall […]
That’s an ominous headline, isn’t it? What’s he going to reveal? Why is his future so uncertain? Why should you even care? Well, the answer to the last question is, you shouldn’t. I just don’t know what the heck I’m doing in 2020 in terms of my racing schedule. For the second straight year, I’ve […]
I’ll be doing something a little bit foreign on Saturday – pinning a bib on my shorts and racing. It’s been almost three months since I ran the Silver Rush 50 in Leadville, but mentally it feels like it was three years ago. I usually get excited on race week, but I’m feeling more apprehensive […]
As I type this, I’m sitting in the Laughing Goat Coffeehouse on Pearl Street in Boulder, Colo., easily my favorite coffee shop in the country. The coffee and food are both great, and the culture matches that level of excellence. There’s plenty of space, your typical coffee shop clientele and plenty of chill vibes to […]
