Glorious day helping to mark part of the course for the @gobeyondracing #SmithRockAscent - This place is an #Oregon gem! - - Soak it all in & good luck runners! - - #trailrunning #ultrarunning #gobeyondracing #smithrock #smithrockstatepark #pnwonderland #smithrock50k #smithrock25k

The @trailblazers WIN & move on to the Western Conference Finals for the first time in 19 years! - - It’s been so fun watching these guys all season, to witness firsthand @damianlillard score 50 w/ the game winner & wave goodbye to OKC, the quadruple overtime win, & then today advancing to the next round on the shoulders of @3jmccollum - - What’s more impressive is their demeanor and outlook. Here’s a quote from #DamianLillard on May 1, 2019 when asked about all the pressure: - - “Pressure, nah. Fam, this is just playing ball,” Lillard said. “Pressure is the homeless man, who doesn’t know where his next meal is coming from. Pressure is the single mom, who is trying to scuffle and pay her rent. - - “We get paid a lot of money to play a game. Don’t get me wrong ― there are challenges. But to call it pressure is almost an insult to regular people.” - - Way to make us proud, #Trailblazers -& let’s keep proving the naysayers wrong! - - #PortlandTrailblazers #ripcity #blazers #nbaplayoffs #pdx #nba #basketball #portland #oregon #lillardtime

Hammock time for Momma bear! Happy Mother’s Day to all! ❤️

Headed out the #Washington #PacificCrestTrail for an 18-mile solo outing to the top of #TableMountain - It was awesome. @wser training is coming together nicely, especially with this heat wave! 🔥- - #trailrunning #pnwonderland #pct #bluebirdday #volcanoes #columbiarivergorge #mountainrunning #columbiamontrail #testedtough #columbiapartner #ws100 #goodultratraining

Saturday was a last minute decision to join friends at the #OregonCoast for what they dubbed the Point Break Traverse! (The movie Point Break was shot here, as well as Goonies!)- - It was a 30-mile point-to-point from #TillamookHead to #Manzanita #Oregon -#running & #hiking through beautiful coastline trails, & approximately 7 miles of beach running. So much fun! - - Thanks for organizing & for the invite, friends! - - #trailrunning #oregoncoasttrail #cannonbeach #ecolastatepark #oswaldstatepark #exploregon #pnwonderland

Just before this Friday afternoon run I had thoughts of bailing, & just relaxing watching the @trailblazers playoff game. Just then my buddy @febbraro happened to be starting his run at the same trailhead. Next thing I know we are chatting through the first 4 miles, & I am re-energized. 2 hours later I’m hammering miles 15-18! Thx for the kickstart, Frank! Now let’s go watch the #Blazers ! - - #ForestPark #Portland #oregon #WildwoodTrail 🔹🌲

Happy Mother’s Day to this incredible lady.

Great catching up with a college roommate while on a work trip to Chicago. Yea, we had pizza.

Point Break Traverse 50k. Full grown people acting like clowns for a day. Perfect. #trailrunning #ultrarunning #pacificnorthwest #oregonbeaches #upperleftusa

City tour connecting 3 high points in Portland. @wyeastwolfpack #triplepeakchallenge #wyeastchallenge #wyeastwolfpack

We got into some real stuff today. Deep stuff. Character building stuff. Probably would have been cool to ski in. 24 miles and almost 6k of climbing today with @sweatysteven is a good way to spend a Saturday and get that spring season rolling. #mountainrunning #trailrunning #bloodyshins

I need that. #trailrunning #runnersofthewild #getafterit #mountainrunning photos: @sweatysteven

Back on the consistent training wagon after some time off. #HURT100 was one of my best races in bit. Not in time but in my stomach not being a mess. I recorded a podcast talking about my race and the nutrition plan that got me through 100 miles and 29 hours in the jungle.

On a whim, decided to hit the Tillamook Forest for a run. This was as easy as it got. I was breaking through shin deep snow the whole time. My 45 pound companion seemed to move a little easier. #runnersofthewild #getafterit #trailrunning #pointermix #traildog

For the past 8 days @yassinediboun and I, and for a while @travisliles have been running home. This is our finish line. We have an estimated 6pm finish time. #orpctrun #somanymiles #thisisultra #fktattempt #finishcancer

Last night @yassinediboun and I needed off the trail. After some food and much needed sleep, we are back on the PCT. We have slowed enough to miss the overall FKT, so we are gunning for the supported FKT. If we can finish before 12:40 am on Monday, we have it. We are estimating a Sunday afternoon to evening finish. #planschange #thisisultra #somanymiles #orpctrun #fktattempt posted by @chrislowphoto

Perfect.

At an aid stop, getting ready for more #somanymiles #fktattempt #orpctrun

At about 11:30 we crossed highway 140 near Fish Lake and started the push over Mt McLoughlin and on to Crater Lake. Today, because of a mapping error yesterday, we will do about 69 miles. #orpctrun #fktattempt #somanymiles posted by @chrislowphoto

Hitting a quick aid stop 10 miles into day 2 to review the plan with @yassinediboun and @travisliles for the #fktattempt #orpctrun #somanymiles
