Woke LA Marathon! Runners can elect to run only 18 miles instead of 26.2 and collect a coveted marathon medal. Maybe at the LA Olympics world class athletes will only run 13.1 to win the marathon?! 😂 #everyonegetsamedal

Weekly track workout comprised of 4 sets of 600 + 300 repeats. Targets 2:35 and 70. Ran 2:29, 66, 2:35, 66, 2:33, 65, 2:28, 63. Fell short of my goal to run 6-8 sets, but splits were fast. Looking forward to 800's next week. Thanks to my Coach Christian. #run #running

Running on the Appalachian Trail is an epic and unique experience. Sunday long run 10 miles and 3,000+ feet vertical. Beautiful and brutal! Had to climb through a rock crevice. Trail documentary on my YT channel. #trailrunning #ultrarunning youtube.com/watch?v=fUeeyNaf…

I'm always skeptical of college coaches that send out mass mailings or blanket emails to half of my HS's roster offering roster spots or potential scholarships without knowing anything more than a performance mark. Wrong school, program, & coach if interest is in a number.

Brutal. Barkley Marathons 2021 continues to feast on its young, with only 11 runners (of 40 starters) on loop 2 of 5. Rain and dropping temps will claim more. Will we have any finishers this year...? #bm100 #ultrarunning #trailrunning #frozenheadstatepark #barkleymarathons2021
It sucks. Temp dropping and the rain that is not supposed to be here doesn’t seem to want to stop.

Wow. 40 runners started loop 1 of 2021 Barkley Marathons. Only 16 started loop 2 and 24 DNF. No wonder #bm100 is the race that eats its young. Good luck! Kudos to everyone who toed the line! #ultrarunning #trailrunning #frozenheadstatepark #barkleymarathons2021
Jake Rankinen finished loop one just under the 13:40 cutoff and did not have time to begin loop two within the time limit. There are 16 runners on loop two; everyone else is a DNF. #BM100
