Earlier this year the Tucson trail running community came together for an exciting project on a beautiful and popular running route. It was an amazing day that I will never forget. Angela Greynolds Woodall @teamwoodallaz worked her butt off and put together this documentary that chronicles the history of the loop and our attempt to break a decades long barrier. She did some incredible work here. Grab some popcorn and enjoy! Link in bio

Pacing was good, nutrition was good, hydrated, felt strong for the first 5 or so hours of Javalina. Then around mile 43-45 my legs turned into 100lb weights. I couldn’t seem to fling them out in front of me anymore. I felt great, but my legs wouldn’t work. Felt kind of like those dreams when your trying to run but there’s a force pulling you back 🤷♂️
Two shots of Fireball at Jackass aid station got me buzzed enough to walk/shuffle back to home base at mile 60 and drop. 🥃😊
Not sure why my body has been shutting down so hard and quick in these longer races. But I do know it’s time to switch it up and focus on the shorter distances for a while.
I’ve always wanted to podium at the Buffalo Marathon…
Thanks for all the support, especially my crew @teamwoodallaz ! @ronikaroo@aravaiparunning@topoathletic .
Great sharing some miles with @thestring.bean and @jacobpuzey - way to keep kicking ass out there fellas.

There’s a 100-mile Halloween party raging in the desert tomorrow, I know what I’m going as.
Live coverage of the entire event can be watched on @aravaiparunning YouTube channel. Thanks to @aravaiparunning and @topoathletic for helping me get to the start line.

Mt Lemmon for the win! Winston and Howies first time up to my favorite place on earth. The cold mountain spring water and delicious apples were a hit 😋.
DNF at States ‘21. Spent Saturday and Sunday feelin shitty, defeated and embarrassed. Spent this morning writing out a list of everything that went wrong, and everything I could do to be better prepared for next time. I’ll be back. I can’t quit you @wser 😘!

Yesterday we welcomed Winston Hutch Ware into the world! Mama and baby Winston did great and we have been having a wonderful time getting to know this beautiful little guy. We couldn’t be happier 😊🥰❤️
Love me some Zane Grey 50 in the spring!
This race worked perfectly as a prep race for States - tried out new nutrition, got reminded of what 50 mile legs feel like, and it broke up the monster training weeks leading into @wser which my body needed. Just as planned, I felt fully recovered in less than a week, and back to beast mode training we go!
Big shout out to @hawks_hayden for his coaching this year. Reaching out to him at the beginning of the year was the best decision I could have made, and I’m hitting training levels that I never thought I could hit! Cheers coach 🍻!
