Fun little snow shoe adventure in Donner 😀 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Donner Lake)

Wherever the trails lead you, follow the one less travelled...unless you’re going the wrong way then follow the one more travelled. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Auburn State Recreation Area)

Today, what I got out of my run was a run. Then I stuffed my face full of food, and almost called it a day. I did a fierce full ice bath for 25 min and then a hot bath for 45 min. I’m sure I had mild hypothermia at the end of the ice bath, but I’ll be sure to do up to 40lbs of ice instead of 60lbs! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Auburn State Recreation Area)

A not so throwback Thursday to last Saturday for a recap on my race for the FOURmidable 50K. I placed 33rd with a time of 05:47:31, but was hoping to do much better. Last year I finished 5 minutes faster and had done a 100K two weeks prior, but I guess last Saturday wasn’t exactly my day. I ran comfortably for the first 10-15 miles until my legs burned out and my nutrition wasn’t as great from mostly consuming gels and electrolytes. My next race is April 14th for the Lake Sonoma 50 Miler with an elevation gain of 10k feet, hopefully my training and nutrition will be dialed in better and set my pace back to have a strong finish. Thanks @mountainboundlife for the pic! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento @singletrackrunning (at Auburn State Recreation Area)

Race day is next Saturday and I’m hoping to best my time from last year. I can’t wait to face the challenge for the first race of the year! @singletrackrunning •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Auburn State Recreation Area)

Spent a chunk of the day on the trails with a nice 25 miler. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #beinspired #totalnutrition #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Auburn State Recreation Area)

The only important thing is to show up. Show up for training. Show up for competition. Show up for a new day. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #rei1440project #mynature #outperform #optoutside #runnershighvision #nature #befree #beinspired #totalnutrition #getoutthere #wildernessculture #runningcommunity #running #trailrunning #runnersworld #run #trailrunningcommunity #instarunners #findyouradventure #ultrarunning #createyourtrail #naturesgym #merrelloutside #keephammering #nobodycaresworkharder #howbaddoyouwantit @outsidemagazine @merrell @rei @totalnutrition_sacramento (at Auburn State Recreation Area)
