Seventy48 Race Report
TL;DR – I finished the Seventy48 race, kayaking 70 miles from Tacoma to Port Townsend in 15.5 hours and I’m ready to sign up for next year. One of the lessons I’ve learned from doing various long distance events is … Continue reading

I’m falling a little behind on these, but the running is still going well. In March, we ran the Les Bois 10k race from Fort Boise up into the foothills and back. It was the largest race so far with … Continue reading
