Transrockies: The North Face Bendites
Once again, Zach and I decided to team up and take on the 6-day, 120 mile GORE-TEX transrockies race across the Colorado rockies. Last year we tackled the race as an unprepared, undertrained duo not really sure what we were getting ourselves into. We ended up finishing third, but almost killed ourselves in the process. This… read more »
Mt. Ashland Hill Climb
Climbing to the finish line Ah, the Mt. Ashland Hill Climb. The race has kind of become a ritual for me each August. For the past 4 years I have traveled down with other nordic skiers to participate in the half marathon hill climb. The race itself is painful, and never gets any easier, but… read more »
SOB 50 miler
With Ecuador 50 miler still in my legs I attempted to race another 50 miler just two weeks later. I contemplated dropping down to the 50k race or skipping it all together, but in the end I decided to just give it a go. I really wanted to race and I also wanted to try… read more »
Never Stop Exploring…..
Video: TNF Endurance Challenge Ecuador This past week I was in Quito, Ecuador for The North Face Ecuador 80k trail race. I had such an amazing time! It was so different racing in South America and I got to spend the week with some amazing people and run in one of the most beautiful places in… read more »
Dirty Half: USATF Trail Half Marathon Championships
In typical Stephanie fashion I decided the day before that I was going to race. I wasn’t sure it was a good idea because it was between my last week of class and finals week at school, meaning I was BUSY! I really wanted to get a longer effort in before I leave for Ecuador… read more »
Pole, Pedal, Paddle: The Olympics of Bend
THREE-PEAT! Photo credit: Mike Albright The PPP is the race I love to hate. Each time I race I swear I will never do it again, but somehow I am drawn to it. For those unfamiliar, this is a great description: The Pole Pedal Paddle is HARDCORE! The race itself is not the hard part- the… read more »
Lake Sonoma 50: First 50 miler = check!
Lake Sonoma was my debut 50 miler and turns out, I LOVED IT! I had awesome weekend down in Healdsburg and couldn’t be happier with my first 50 mile race. I learned a lot and can’t wait to do another one! Maybe at this point the amnesia has set in and I’ve forgotten how hard it… read more »
Gorge Waterfalls 50k and SPRING BREAK!
Photo credit: Glenn Tachiyama I finally did my first race of 2012! It was a great way to kickoff the start of my spring break. Running a 50k race is probably not most people’s idea of fun, but then again I’m not really typical…. The Gorge Waterfalls 50k was a spectacular race course! I would highly recommend… read more »
Starting a blog….
Yes, it’s about time I started a blog. I guess it was only a matter of time, so what better time than right now when I’m in the middle of grad school the week before finals when I’m trying to simultaneously squeeze in runs and study every free minute in between. I’ve never been known… read more »
