Airline Pilot Takes on Leadville 100 Ultramarathon

Join along for my first ever ultramarathon run race. The Leadville trail 100. This is 100 miles in the highest elevation town in Colorado named Leadville. Before this I ran one marathon and after that was given the opportunity from Coros to run this iconic race. I knew I couldn’t turn down this opportunity considering it’s a very hard race to receive an invitation to. Ultimately it was the hardest physical feat of my life but we got the job done. The cutoff time was 30 hours and I finished it in 29 hours and 33 minutes. From start to finish I was racing those cut off times and wouldn’t have made it without my incredible team by my side. Shoutout to the crew Israel Palacio, Ka’imi Kuoha, Andrew Shelly, Brock Covington, Ty Morris, Anthony Diaz. Doing hard things with your friends brings you closer and this event really brought us together and turned the friendship into family. I hope you all enjoyed this video and I’ll see you on the next one 💪🏼✈️!

Watching this video I recalled all the emotions, fear and doubt that I experienced when I signed up for my first spartan race. I discovered that while it was way beyond my comfort zone and out of my box I loved the challenge, I love finding I can do more than I thought I could.
Awesome work!! 🎉

[@Joeymiuccio]

Ayy thanks and congrats on that achievement as well
