Now this is a runner who knows a thing or two about the trails…

Keith Krieger from Kansas City, Missouri!

Keith is officially signed up for our 50K, and he’s bringing an incredible amount of experience to the River Bluff starting line with 93+ trail and ultramarathon races under his belt!

That’s a whole lot of dirt, elevation, long miles, early mornings, and probably a few questionable life decisions along the way.

We’re honored to have someone with this much experience taking on our course and helping make the inaugural River Bluff Trail Runs even more special.

Keith, thanks for choosing River Bluff! We’re excited to have you on the starting line and can’t wait to see you take on the 50K this December!
