Neither snow nor rain nor hail nor gloom stays these climbers from the swift-ish completion of their appointed summit.

Despite the shittiness of 2020, I was able to have

Despite the shittiness of 2020, I was able to have some grand adventures and make the best of it.

1. I was fortunate enough to get to Hawaii before the pandemic and visit @islander_ji and @meegsiz and their girls. I surfed for the first time (sort of) and tackled the Haiku Stairs

2. Once lockdown happened, I was still able to run and tried to keep a sense of humor about it. I’ve been working on running all the streets near me.

3. Speaking of running, I did a LOT of #trailventures with my trail bruh @adellario. With all our races canceled, we made our own routes in a never ending pursuit of epic mountain miles and balsamroot

4. I ran #sectionJ of the PCT with Tony, ending in spectacular disaster and valuable lessons. Still a little bitter about this, even tho we completed it. Makes for an excuse to do it again!

5. I finally did a one day summit of #GlacierPeak, 13 hours car to car solo in a soul cleansing ass kicking

6. I was chosen to be an ambassador for one of my favorite running gear brands @pathprojects! Super stoked to be on the #pathprojectskrew and rep their gear in the coming year!

7. I bought a van and have been converting it into an adventure mobile. I drove to Virginia from Seattle to get started on a new tattoo and visited 26 states on my solo journey. I saw a lot of the US and gained an appreciation for our different regions and the unique beauty each state has. Except Kansas. #KansasSucks

8. My little guy #Kirintheshibainu continues to be my life adventure buddy 🐕

9. Finished out the year with a trip to #DeathValley and got to experience a full moon over #racetrackplaya. I climbed, I trail ran, and I mountain biked and I can’t wait to go back.

Looking forward to adding trail races back to my adventures in 2021 and hopefully shedding some of this solitude with more great friends!

Sometimes your high desert mountain adventure run

Sometimes your high desert mountain adventure run turns into a full on alpine escapade! Missed the weather window on Telescope Peak and broke trail through fresh powder all the way to the highest point in Death Valley - 11,048’. Views were ... well it was a blustery, freezing, snowy storm at the summit. A perfect excuse to come back and do it again! #mycrookedpath #pathprojectskrew #trailrunning #mountainrunning #deathvalley

Where did you #optoutside this past weekend? I chose to explore #centraloregon and do a modified #runtherock course that took me high above #smithrockstatepark.

Such a beautiful route with some nice vert up to Gray Butte with a flowy descent on the Cole Loop trail.

Hoofed it on over to Smith Rock and got to watch some climbers tackle pitches as I scrambled over Asterisk Pass. The drop down from Misery Ridge was a fun bomber run with a few sharp corners 😝

The views were amazing all day and just was such an overall fantastic #trailrun. #mycrookedpath #pathprojectskrew #trailrunner #moutainrunning #ultrarunning #pathprojects #salomonsports #tifosioptics #outdoorresearch #lasportivarunning

I don’t care how many I’ve experienced throughout all my years, #sunrises will never cease to be unique and amazing #mycrookedpath #camplife #boondocking

Lotsa damp trail on our recent adventure. Had planned on heading up to a couple of alpine lakes but the snow level had other plans. Not wanting to posthole and trail-break for miles we opted to head back down into the valley and run the river trail. Lots of super cool biome to check out! #mycrookedpath #pathprojectskrew #trailrunning #mountainrunning #pathprojects #salomonsports

The #UnitedStates has some pretty amazing and unique places. I was fortunate to capture a few on my recent loop. #sunrise over the #bonnevillesaltflats was pretty special. Driving on them in the van was also fun 😝 #mycrookedpath #aroundAmericatour #desertsunrise #vanlife
