Wait for it…. Day 85, 85 ultramarathons in 85 days Hank the mountain chihuahua does about 5-7 miles with my 4-5 times a week. He’s 7 years old and has been running trails his whole life.

Yesterday at 4:30 PM, I set out to summit the highest peak in Colorado. In winter. Solo. Most of the route would be in total darkness. Why? Because sometimes we need to shake ourselves out of fear patterns. Step outside our heads. Have a coming to God moment. Remember what really matters. Exposure, subzero temps, a solo ascent in the dark? Scary—yes. But it forced me to get comfortable in very uncomfortable conditions. Now, I can push further, go longer, and take on harder climbs in brutal environments. Facing fear and succeeding builds confidence. Facing fear and failing teaches lessons. I don’t avoid fear—I chase it. Study it. And when I confront my fear of solo nighttime ascents, I take away its power. Growth comes from discomfort. Expanding our limits is the only way to expand our experience. And I want my experience to be as vast as possible. 🌔

Each week I do two back to back long runs. I’m in the THICK of training for my next 100miler. This week, the 2 back-to-back runs equaled nearly 12hrs of running, 5:45hrs Tuesday and 6hrs Wednesday. I was in Phoenix for Thanksgiving with family so I was able to run in the desert /warm conditions just east of the city - good training for my HURT 100miler in January (on Oahu). Also very technical! Back to back long runs allow me to do two hard endurance efforts on consecutive days without the same body fatigue/impact I’d get from just doing a single day 12hr run. First 2 pics are from Day 1 run, second 2 (pic/video) from day 2. Was definitely tired by the end of day 2. But felt good most the run. Need to dial in my calories better. Had to carry all my water for nearly 6hrs for day 1. Very heavy pack (13 pounds in a Salomon 12L). Day 2 had a water refill halfway through, still good amount of weight carried, but way less than day 1 (took 48oz + calories).
