Here is Jason's race reports from the inaugural Skyrunning Weekend at Whiteface Mountain in New York."I seriously considered just stopping and sitting down to the side of the trail..."

Len was focused on the Vertical K on Saturday, which was extremely challenging. He was a bit unsure about the 2nd days Marathon but with encouragement from his wife, he ended up having a weekend to be proud of! 

Date: July 12th, 2015
Location: Suffern NY through Harriman State Park to Bear Mountain NY.
Adventure: 23 miles, 5,400 feet elevation gain

Since moving from Washington, this was Natalie's 1st major mountain race on the East Coast that took her straight up a mountain, and did so on multiple days.

After accumulating 32 tickets from several years of trying to get in, Harry was finally selected for the 2015 race

This was Amy's 3rd running of this extremely challenging 54 mile ultra that takes place in the heart of the Catskills of NY. She had a very important piece of gear break on her...

Ben felt at home since the ADK was his old stomping grounds for years and included many visits to Whiteface Mountain & the High Peaks Region. This may be the 1st time Ben breathed through his ears though...

Here are our photos from the Whiteface Sky Running Weekend in the Adirondacks of New York, which included a Vertical K on Saturday and marathon on Sunday that included some wicked weather! 

Ryan Welts headed out with his training friend, Nate Sanel for a multi day fastpack in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. 

The 2015 Manitou's Revenge is in the books! Here are a few photos from the days adventure!

"I told myself for weeks before the race that I would save something for the second lap. It didn’t work…"

"The last time I raced the Bearscat 50 in Wawayanda I swore I wouldn't go back. I finished that race two years ago in about 6:55 or so. As you all know the memory of the pain you experience fades with time."

"I came into the Cayuga Trails 50, which doubles as the US National 50-mile Championship, off of one of the best training blocks I've had in recent years--a six-week stretch of over 650 miles with some excellent workouts on both the roads and the track. However..."

All 3 years of Cayuga have been very competitive, and this year it was probably the deepest it has ever been considering the surprise entrants and results. 

The Cayuga Trail 50 Mile USATF Championships is in the books! What an amazing event and a great experience to be a part of! Here are the race results, photos and videos from the day.

As I was looking for a race between Rock the Ridge 50m and Cayuga Trail 50m, I came across the Kettletown State Park trail races in CT, part of the Trail2Trail series. The races are held on a 10k loop that was described as challenging, and there were options for running 5k, 10k, 20k, or 50k. After Tammany and Breakneck, how hard could a race that never got over 650 feet of elevation be?

I've been trying to get to Lake George for the Prospect Mountain hill climb for the past few years.  I like hill races, even those on pavement, and this one, less than two hours from my house, has been on my radar for some time.
