2023 Leadville Silver Rush 50 Mile Race / Racing across the sun

11 ай бұрынThe 2023 Leadville Silver Rush 50 Run was a fantastic, albeit hot 50 miler! It really was the perfect tune-up race for the Leadville 100 Run coming up very soon. The average elevation of the SR50 was just over 11,000', and we topped out just over 12,000'. Perfect 100 mile training for a high altitude race!

Congrats on a solid finish and thank you for the excellent video. The dust was no joke, and right from the start was crazy. Applying sunscreen at the aid stations was like rubbing sandpaper all over. That road on the final big climb seemed like it went on for a looong time. And the last mile where you turn away from the finish and snake thru the woods sure does mess with you. Good luck in the 100!

Nice - I think that puts you in a good position for the big buckle goal in August at 10hrs. More importantly: what SHOES did you end up using in the 50, and did they treat you well? Good job...
@UltraTrailSteven 11 ай бұрын
I hope so! Thanks! I wore the Hoka Zinal 2. They did great, but I won’t be wearing them for the 100. Towards the end they caused a couple of spots that likely would have turned into hot spots or blisters.
