action packed weekend in the gorge for @acg . chasing athletes around the course for 3 straight days is a pretty fun way to get to know a place, but mostly I just tried to keep up with @shitinthewoods and the @ovrlnd.studio crew — y’all brought your A-game as always.
personal highlight had to be watching the absolutely stacked 50k women’s race up close — the @jenniferlichter vs @yaomiao1 battle lived up to the hype, @tara.dower and @baileykowalczyk battled to the line, and @mleopold4 threw down a very respectable season opener and finished as top non pro / unsponsored runner in 6th ❤️🔥
big year for trails off to a hot start!
still work for the @colehocker film that @ovrlnd.studio x @wahoofitnessofficial just dropped — go check it out!
lowkey been a huge fan since 2021 indoor ncaa’s when Cole pulled off the mile-3000m double one hour apart (YouTube it), so I felt very fortunate to get the call up for this project — always fun shooting with the homies @anseldickey@aldensuokko 🤘🥇🤘
mid south 2026, one hell of a redemption. i have so much love for this event and the people who make it possible. had the privilege of covering the women’s pro race on friday and it was incredible to witness the top group throw haymakers at each other all day and sprint nine up to the finish - this wouldn’t have been possible in the old mass start format, so i call the new pro only format a huge success. even more incredible was rolling around all weekend with @ellenlikesbikes and @gwilliees y’all are rockstars. saturday was a party like always, and the sunrise dust shots i got from the roll out that morning are some of my favorite to date. peace out stillwater see ya next year 🤘
stills + bts for @ovrlnd.studio ’s Sofia x Velocio project in the desert (and a little mid south action mixed in) from earlier this winter. exceptionally good time shooting cacti, bikes, sunrises, and a world class athlete at the top of her sport.
Ansel, Alden and Fred did a fantastic job on the video component of this story that launched yesterday, link in stories!

lake placid xc ski world cup finals 2026 for @fasterskier - what a weekend! 🇺🇸❄️✨
my first ever nordic ski “race” was a covid edition of the lake placid loppet with maybe a dozen other people if I’m being generous, pretty amazing to be here a handful of years later alongside 10,000+ fans each day shooting the best in the world.
it was special to see olympic medalist ben ogden race on home soil (and have the chainsaw gang from vermont show up in full force), watch king klaebo do his thing, and see so much hype for this sport across fans of all generations. but this world cup final was always going to belong to jessie diggins. the joy she gave this sport throughout her whole career was on full display, and it made for a joyous weekend for all. THANK YOU JESSIE!
peacham fall fondo ‘25 🍁 always a gem of a weekend, thanks to @ian_boswell for the hospitality and for providing a great excuse to eat way too many slices of pie. no better place in the fall than vermont.
sights and bts from utmb week featuring more border crossings than hours slept, big mountain energy, maddie’s stellar occ performance, and an incredible opportunity to cover these races for @ovrlnd.studio / @acg .
highlights include witnessing @david.a.sinclair.92 and @drew_holmen go 2-3 in ccc and seeing so many friends throughout the week, including epic finishes from britta, fergus, and mead.
had a blast shooting alongside @shitinthewoods and @robinoneill - so inspired by you both!
now back to reality, and the pups…
rowdy one today at OCC! @mleopold4 threw down for a top 25 finish (top 100 overall), the highest of anyone in the sub-elite category. let’s go again tomorrow.
VO ‘25 | every year i am reminded that this is the raddest and most genuine community of sick athletes and even better humans. i love being a part of the @vermontoverland team and finding the stoke out on vermont’s prettiest trails and dirt roads.
s/o to the @ovrlnd.studio crew and friends for making this look as epic as it really is (@aldensuokko@sunny_d_quist@dev.sandd@gill.e.cameron 📸🔥)
and @anseldickey , not sure how you keep raising the bar every year but you’re a maniac and I love you 🤘
And they’re rolling!
Vermont Overland 2025 is underway! Good luck to all the riders on course today and a huge thank you to all the volunteers who make this event possible. Let’s make it a day to remember 🙌
maddie was kind enough to give me a day off to celebrate our two year anniversary after a whirlwind week of mostly me chasing her up mountains in the dolomites + on the TMB — grateful for the good times, tired legs, and endless adventures with you @mleopold4 🫶
