- The Mogollon Monster 100 Mile Ultramarathon IS all it's cracked up to be! Not only is the course extremely difficult, but the weather likes to throw a curveball, as well. This year was no different - a massive hail storm hit in the afternoon of day 1 and really set the tone for the rest of the race.
Unfortunately, I was unable to finish the course after 60 miles due to lack of calories from being cold/wet for so long and other lessons learned during this incredible trail race. This video also shows how important my crew was just to get me that far. They really took care of me when I needed it the most and I can't thank them enough!
Take a look and see what the "Monster" is all about! Hope to see you out there next year!
See you on the trails!

Totally Felt the Highs and Lows and your video conveys the allure of an Ultra in spades! Great Job out there!
Thank you so much!! It was a wild day on the trails!
The Monster is a tough course: good work!
Thank you so much!! It’s definitely a monster of a race!
Thanks! I've been thinking about this one!
Noah's "Better in the afternoon than at night" for hail is sooooo right. At run rabbit run this year, we had intermittent rain/hail all day. No biggie - but the one at night... ouch!You're soaking wet and cold, with no hope of getting warm until sunrise (and splish splashing in puddles all night...)
Oh man, that sounds wild and so tough! Weather definitely has its own plans, especially on race day haha!
The Monster was brutal. I met you at the first aid station (I was the one that told you I liked your videos). I don't know how you race and have the wherewithal to film. Keep racing and making great content!
Hey Brett! Great to meet you out there and thank you so much for the support! That really lifted me up! Congrats on your race and hope to see you at another one soon!
Great video and insight on the course
Bummer ya didn't make it
I'm gonna try it this year
thank you
Thanks Gregg! Best of luck at the race and enjoy that epic route!
Awesome course and awesome video! Subscribed for more!
Thank you so much!! Gotta love our running community!
We’re in for a HOT one this year!!
I just heard that! Not sure what’s better… intense hail storm or blazing hot heat. Hope all works out and you have a great race! Cheers!
Huge achievement, i would take that 60 any day! Thank you for the motivation!
Thanks for the kind words Maxime! Enjoy those trails!
I should have made a video of crewing this insane race last year
That would have been so cool! Please let me know if you make a video at an upcoming race!
Man that was a hell of a storm that came in on you all out there. You stuck it out and tried to move forward but sometimes the body has other ideas. I think you made the right choice. Great video for sure! Subbed
Thanks Joe! It was a tough call in the moment, but I definitely don’t regret it. But makes me want to try again next year! Good luck on your next race or adventure!
Thanks man 2023 here we come!
Heck yes! Can’t wait!
Incredible job! Thank you for showing us the results even if its not what you had hoped for!
Thank you so much, Kevin. It was definitely a reality check when I couldn’t safely keep moving forward. Impressed by anyone who can push through any ultra! Cheers!
Hell of an adventure man! You should be proud! 🤘 the monster is next level. Excited to hear what you plan to do next.
Thank you so much, Cody! I really appreciate that! We still need to collab, my friend!
Nooooice!
Thaaaaaaanks!
It’s inspiring me ❤thank you for share your adventure
Thank you so much!! Good luck on your next big adventures!
That hail! And that was no cover, squating by a bush. What a bad spot to be caught in hail.
Hey Dan, thanks for watching the video! The hail was definitely intense! It would have been okay, but those little ice chunks were like getting pegged by marbles. Gotta love those wild mountain storms! 😬
What an amazing adventure! Is it odd that I'm looking forward to my next DNF after watching this?
Haha not odd at all! Hey, nothing wrong with giving your all and potentially getting a DNF. Keeps the fire lit for the next big run! Cheers!
YEAH BUDDY!!
Thanks Brody! I can’t thank you guys enough for taking care of me up there!
Beast of a race for a first 100. I am an east coast running but I make it to AZ for Black canyon 100k, some day I might make it out to AZ for a Hardrock Qualifier. I hope you can get back at it.
Thanks Sean! Hope you make it out to Black Canyon 100k soon! Cheers!
So awesome. Can't wait for my first 50k 😅🤸🏃
Yeah man! Good luck at your 50k! 👏
Good try! It's better to make a smart decision, then to end up needing rescue. You can try again another day.
Thank you! I definitely need some redemption!
