Ever consider tackling one of the hardest mountain 100k's in the world as your debut in the distance, then go on to absolutely crush it out there? Because that's what Lauren Portada just did! She's been logging the vert and repeats on Beast Coast ski slopes all spring, then brought the Jersey grit to Courmayeur and went full send on the . Hella impressive! 💛⛰️🇮🇹 ?

Diablo / TOR Vert Camp was a blast! We went searching for vert, and as usual, Diablo delivered. (It also delivered in the Poison Oak category 🤣) Such a blast to run with the 2026 Tor de Lucas Scholarship recipient Felicia Maquinalez !

Please join me in giving a HUGE congratulations to Becky Margulies for completing the Marty Maricle Feral 100 Miler run this past weekend! Not only was this Becky's first hundo, but she completed it in the utmost style; looping around the Headlands surrounded by friends and loved ones in a way that would make Marty proud.
When Becky first started whispering about a hundred last year after Quicksilver I listened... When she mentioned she wanted it to be the MMF, I was super stoked. While I like supported, commercial races here and there, the fa**ss style MMF 100 is an event that resonates from the true heart and soul of the ultrarunning community. Becky knew that it would be tough (hundos are hard!) but embraced both the training and massive logistical preparation from a place of joy and playfulness. When we talked last week her mental edge was more locked in than most athletes I encounter - she was ready. This weekend she continued to pour her heart into this event and went full send all the way back across the Bridge. Absolutely incredible!
