Adam Horner & The Elephant 100 miler.
Cairncross State Forest doesn’t do polite.
Six brutal loops, 8,500m+ of climbing, night start, Death Valley in the mix, one of the nastiest milers in the country.
Most people talk about it. Adam went and ran it.
Training got done. No theatre. Showed up, listened to the body, trusted the work Coach Mario Buchs put in, and then executed it.
Simple.
Second place at a race that regularly eats fields. That’s not luck. That’s process.
The result is the headline. The experience is the real prize: hours in the dark, climbing when the legs have already filed a complaint, still making decisions, still moving.
This one is quality.
