100 miles of this … and more.
Redwood canopy, signature fog, miles and miles of trails so darned good that you forget you’ve been out there for 16 hours.
Ask @dante_dugan — A few years in the Bay and he’s now the most enthusiastic person at any group run. Some of that is Dante’s natural effervescence— the rest, well, the trails did that.
BA100. June 13.

From 300 pounds to the start line of a 100-miler.
One step, one mile, one long day at a time, until trail running stopped being something @aj_strides was trying and became something he couldn’t stop doing.
His first Bay Area ultra was supposed to be a 50-miler. The weather ripped chunks out of the course and pushed everyone to the 50K. He told us he was grateful. That he wasn’t ready for the 50 miler anyway.
But that day cracked something open. The race exposed everything he didn’t know about himself — gaps in training, pacing, mindset. Things you can’t see until a course is actively dismantling you. Most people would’ve taken that as a sign … Agustin took it as a list.
He went away, fixed the things on the list, came back and ran Dick Collins 100K. Now he’s training on technical terrain with serious elevation — because he knows that’s where his next race lives.
Agustin will be in the start line of the BA10. He knows what he’s made of now. He also knows the course doesn’t care.
Born in the Bay. Running June 13.

Cristian’s dad used to run him through Dry Creek Regional Park as a kid. Him, his mom, his sister. That was the family getaway.
He still runs there. Now he takes his three kids.
In between he co-founded @foreverforwardrunclub and was a founding member of @milesoverbarriers . The trails didn’t go anywhere. Neither did he.
@4forever_forward_motivation was “Born in the Bay”. And he’ll be running the inaugural Bay Area 100 on June 13.
