I guess you could say recovery from my race is going well. 2.5 mile hike with the dogs. #colorado #ultrasky #ultrarunning

DNF’d my first #backyardultra. ICYMI everyone DNF’s in a #lastpersonstanding event except, well, the last person who goes one loop further than everyone else. Huge thanks to volunteers and friends who kept me moving and smiling for ~30 miles and a weekend of fun in the mountains.

Last week, Republicans in the House advanced a bill that could put more than 500,000 acres of public land up for sale. Outdoor Alliance has a preliminary analysis of these lands, which shows that the proposed sell offs are places where people ride, climb, hike, and paddle.

Lawmakers just advanced a massive budget bill with last-minute land sell-offs, attacks on NEPA, and conservation rollbacks. Here’s what outdoor recreationists need to know.

I have to google packing lists because it makes me so overwhelmed. There’s a lot of great lists out there.

Every day, we wake up to new attacks on our community, new atrocities happening around the world, and we still have to get through our daily lives. It can be a lot to manage, but remember: we have each other and will keep showing up for one another. www.everydayhealth.com/emotional-he...

8.5 miles up to the top of 8 mile Mesa with my two boys. Saw mountain lion tracks and almost blooming lupines. Beautiful day! #PagosaSprings #running #runsky #ultratraining

Yep. I slept 6-8 hours each night so broken up like that made it more doable.

Ahahahahaha. It’s was at the very beginning of January. Took me just over 5 days to complete. There are actually a couple 300 mile races in the USA even. Athletes keep wanting to go further and race directors listen.

Did y’all stand by the bell tower again? I wonder if visibility is lower since it’s further from traffic now because construction?

It’s not too late to show up, many protests are still getting started, and we’re already over 2 million+. Today has been incredible. Small towns across America doubled or even tripled their turnout compared to 4/5. Way to go! We never expected these small towns to show up with this kind of force!

Yesterday was a high stress day, so today I’m listening to my body and went for a long walk instead of my usual training #run. Thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful sights of a moody spring morning. #PagosaSprings #colorado
