50 Ultra Races in
50 States in
Years 50
50-50-50 Project
Follow me on my journey of visiting the 50 states in my 50’s as I collect stories from running ultra races. I am featuring races organized by local running communities on race courses that are inspiring either through landscape or tradition. Each race is organized by countless volunteers and tireless race directors, and I hope to connect with trail runners from all over the country to learn what drives the sport and how it is evolving.

“If there’s any doing to be done in our lives, it’s best to get going. And in my going I will think of the people I know who have affected me positively, given me strength, or inspired me in different ways, but who are no longer going, or might be barely going, but the day-to-day grind is a struggle, and I will thank them.”
