  • It's time for summer vacation! ☀️ So I'm taking a step back from serious running and taking things slow.... and getting ready for the Leadville 100 ultramarathon.
    In this video, I'll recap my spring half-marathon at the NYRR Brooklyn Half Marathon, share what it was like jumping from a road half into a 50-mile trail race in the San Juan mountains of Colorado, and a preview of Hope Pass, the high point of the Leadville 100 trail ultra marathon race course.

    Can I really be the first person to comment pointing out that the blue T-Shirt Steven wears when talking to us in this video bears the prominent text "The San Juan Solstice 50 Mile Run, Lake City, Colorado 2024" ? Dude totally honored the June High Altitude 50 mile race's request to keep their name out of this! Good luck in Leadville and everyone say hi to my buddy Joe Chernowski as he runs Leadville 100 this August.

If you get into WSER, my coach has been asking me for years if I want to volunteer there. He’s managed the finish line for a long time but is pivoting to managing an aid station. I’ll accept if you get in.
