A wonderfully wintery day on the TWOT trail. 28 miles, 8100 feet of climbing…happy, happy trails.
My favorite spot – on the climb up Little Bald

Boyer’s Furnace 40 Miler – A VHTRC Fat Ass
The Boyer’s Furnace Fat Ass was held on a beautiful Saturday in late December. Blue skies, sunshine and temps in the 60’s made this challenging 40 miler even more of a treat.

My Tribe – the VHTRC at Vermont 100
The Year of the 100
A few scenes from my 100 mile runs this year…winter TWOT (a DNF, 3 loops, 81 miles), MMT, Vermont and Grindstone. What a wonderful year of running and friends. Run happy!
Winter TWOT – February 2014
Winter TWOT – a cold, snowy and icy journey that ended after 3 loops and 81 miles – and a cranky IT band
MMT 100 – May 2014 – this picture pretty much sums up the trail conditions
MMT 100 – I had a blast running the orange trail! A fabulous weekend in the Massanutten mountains with the VHTRC!
Vermont roads are really, really hard. This 100 was a “one and done” for me.
Vermont 100 – The Sound of Music hill
Vermont. Yep.
Grindstone 100 – October 2014 – so happy to be back on my rocky, technical, mountainous trails. My favorite 100 of the year.
Pass Mountain Trail – Shenandoah National Park
A snowy run during the Polar Vortex. Animal tracks, deer beds and lots of snow made for an interesting and fun climb up the mountain and a fast, ski-like descent back down!
