Rim-to-rim-to-rim run, 2021


The R3 run was a huge success!  Really challenging, but also really fun. We finally made it back at about 1:05 AM, after starting out at 4:45 AM the previous day. a total of 52 miles, 20+ hours of running, over 100,000 steps, and close to 12,000 feet of elevation gain. The views and sights were incredible. Also, one of the big highlights was all of the friendly hikers and runners on the trails. So great to share this with RB (Rich H), one of my closest friends and someone who truely appreciates connecting with nature. It also helps that RB has an amazing sense of humor and adventure. It was his idea to plunge into the CO river!  Also, all of the runners and hikers took the time to say hi, ask how you were doing or just to chat. It definitely felt like a lot of camaraderie out there. Here are a few photos and videos.
