Peacock Challenge 55 Miler 2016 Race Report

I love Peacock! Coming off of my rebirth at Triple Trek, I was way stoked for this one. I had decided that this year at Peacock I was going to BE MYSELF all day long, and run my own race. Training was sporadic and the plan was to run smart and fast. This year the…

Tantalus Triple Trek 2016 Race report.

Triple Trek is basically the HURT 100 course, trimmed down to a 30 miler. This was my first ultra distance race and boy have we had some times together. The first time I did this race a few years ago, there was about 5 seconds at the top of the mountain on the second loop,…

Maunawili Out & Back 2016 Race Report

Maunawili has always been a race that has kicked my royal tush! My goal for this one was simple: run a strong race and finish happy. That, I did! I true Nate form, I rolled my ankle about 2 miles into the race. It was a borderline drop out sprain, but I figured I’d give…

Eugene Curnow Trail Marathon 2016 Race Report

This Summer we went camping and traveling through Minnesota, and I couldn’t resist the lure of the Curnow Trail Marathon in Duluth, Minnesota!

Oahu Perimeter 2016 Quick Report

This wasn’t a formal race but more of 4 crazy friends seeing what we could do. Four of us started, two made it to 100 and called it a day, and two of us brought the full distance home. Took me into new places of mental endurance. Stoked on the finish.

HURT 100 2016 Quick Report

Running HURT was a dream come true for me. Overcoming pneumonia, achilles issue, knee injury, foot injury, and a mean staph infection threatened my showing. It was a miracle that I was there and cherished every step. Finish rate is less than 50% and it was a treat to come home with the buckle I…

Peacock 100k Race 2015 Quick Report

Had just come off of pneumonia and achilles problem and cried at the starting line because I couldn’t believe I was actually there. This was brutal, key water stations were missing, mud, rain, heat, someone got helicoptered out injured, wet feet were my nemesis. Only 14 100k finishers. Went the distance with plenty of stories…
