It’s Transrockies week! Lots of love to our most favorite race director of all time, Kevin Houda McDonald. To know Houda is to love him. We are so grateful to spend anytime we can with our Transrockies family. Here’s to a super fun week of playing in the mountains if ColoRADo. #transrockies #TRR #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #willsweatforbeer #themountainsarecalling

“Sitting here tonight, by the fire light it reminds me I already have more than I should. I don’t need fame. No one to know my name, at the end of the day, Lord I pray I have a life that’s good.” Sending all of our positive energy to our niece Ally as she starts an ultra of her own and endures 9 months of chemo. You got this kiddo!! We’ll be your dream team crew through it all🙏🏼🤘🏼🦋 Any extra vibes Ally’s way would be much appreciated. Ally is tagged in this post if you want to read her blog 😁 #cancersucks #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #themountainsarecalling #feedyoursoul #doepicshit #Boulder #ColoRADo

Big shout out to Morgan for crewing, slinging beer, driving driving driving and pimping UD every time I turned around from sun up to sun down. Seriously though, at every aid station fitting packs on pacers, racers, crew chiefs, OG Blake🤘🏼 and beyond. Besides working the UD table at sign up...there was even Skylar snuggling in between. And back in the office today, he just texted me to swing by and grab a HALO for a local elite who is heading to UTMB this week. #thisguy #UDhydrates #ultrarunning #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #feedyoursoul #doepicshit #Boulder #ColoRADo #highlonesome100

Tomorrow Morgan will be handing off a giant cooler to one of our most respected coaches. Give it up for all around good guy, jokester and fellow Boulderite...the one and only, Mr. Adam St. Pierre!🤘🏼🤘🏼 Adam will be leading a great group in Leadville for an ultra running camp and we are honored to feed them. We are fortunate to have fed Adam several times over the years and he has a few specific top secret requests. We also decided today to throw in something pretty cool that we have recently been geeking out over. As hydration is key this time if year, especially over these past few weeks, we’ve been hunting high and low for new teas and fun beverages and have found a super fun favorite in this Butterfly Pea tea! Huge thank you to local coffee shop Beleza for showing us the way🙏🏼Butterfly pea is a deep purple flower full of antioxidants with handfuls of benefits AND it tastes great! Also...purple?! SO pretty🦋 We’ve added it to limeade and lots of fresh water in a giant cooler and are sending it your way Adam! We hope you have an amazing camp! #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #ctsathlete #Boulder #ColoRADo #Leadville

I was recently asked for an updated CV. One that proves why I am uniquely qualified to work on a specific project. What makes me uniquely qualified...? Honestly it has been a hot minute since I have been asked for a resume. We have two projects that will set the tone for the rest of 2019 and a great deal of 2020. One was very out of left field and super exciting. The other, equally exciting, is one I have personally wanted to jump at for a while. The latter is what requires the CV. There is something sobering about the process of sitting back and reading your own resume. A snap shot, a time line of your life’s work. I have always been grateful to the restaurant industry for the many ways a career can spiderweb. One does not simply have to work in a restaurant. Enter RAD🙏🏼 It’s been a few months since I have teetered on the edge of taking on more than I can chew. Being comfortable is boring. However, being comfortable in discomfort is a challenge I have always excelled at. Time to push this little company to the edge. Stay tuned! #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #rad #radboulder #feedyoursoul #doepicshit #Boulder #ColoRADo

Tomatoes coming out of our tomatoes for the Adidas Terrex run today! If you find yourself with “too many” tomatoes or are simply overwhelmed by what to do with them all, roast them and feeeze them for soup/sauce/salsa/bloody mary mix. You will be happy you did so once winter comes and you have a freezer full of summer💙 #tomatoes #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #themountainsarecalling #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #doepicshit #Boulder #ColoRADo

Without a doubt the best part of traveling abroad is the people you spend your time with. Watching and observing everyone in our little Horton Hears a Who sized sport take care of each other without pause. A perfect traveling band of gypsies. From helping out at transitions, fixing gear on the fly, to wiping puke from a friends face or the best roomie ever smuggling you breakfast when you simply could not get out of bed🙏🏼 The experience of watching us all organically take care and watch over each other so easily was THE BEST gift. I love you crazy maniacs and am so proud to call you my friends🦋 #friends #family #doepicshit #rad #radboulder #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #ultrarunningmagazine #guforit #Boulder #ColoRADo

That’s a wrap! Back on US soil and waiting for my connecting flight. Bad Gastein is one of the most magical places I have traveled to. Although I was under the weather for a solid part of this trip, I wouldn’t trade the time with friends for anything. Connecting with new people from all over the world is pretty rad. Spending time with CO/LA/NY friends in such an amazing experience is priceless🙏🏼 Endless gratitude to Tim+Krista for bringing me along and never ending thank you to Adidas Terrex and the Infinite Trails family. Lastly, if you ever find yourself in Bad Gastein, you MUST visit the Hotel Miramonte. Exceptional hospitality from the most beautiful people. Ciao for now. Until next time💙 #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #ColoRADo

Race shenanigans are done! Yesterday was filled with legendary teamwork and sunshine. Today we play🤘🏼 #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #doepicshit #rad #radboulder #Austria #adidasterrex #infinitetrailswch

SO many photos still to come and races to be had! Lots of shenanigans for sure and fast friends. Gastein is beautiful and Adidas Terrex is rad🙏🏼 #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #Austria

Gang’s all here! A bit of travel delay and heat, but we are now settled in and ready to roll! Adidas Terrex definitely knows what is important. Yoga, shakeout and prologue later thus evening. Ciao for now! #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #CoRADo

Hanging in the fancy lounge with an unexpected two hour delay. Although I am a very organized traveler, I do not escape anxiety. Having the Headspace app is gold🙏🏼 Good thing I wore my favorite joggers and three stripes. Like covert jammies! See you soon Adidas family! #rad #radboulder #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #threestripelife #ColoRADo

This one goes out to everyone who will be toeing the line in Squaw this weekend. We’ll be cheering so hard for all of you, if not from a far💙 And to those critics out there...let us head you all off at the pass with these words of wisdom from Teddy R, “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the woman who is actually in the arena.” And to all of you racing, nobody is born a warrior. You choose to be one when you refuse to stay seated. You choose to be one when you refuse to back down. We are so incredibly proud of you all. #seeyouinsquaw2019 #rad #radboulder #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #guforit #ultrarunningmagazine #westernstates100 #ColoRADo

Packing for Adidas Infinite Trails race this week! I leave Tuesday for Austria and Morgan heads to Vegas for a quick out and back on Monday. Flying always throws me for a loop. These are a few things that are an absolute must for me to bring on any trip. It’s often difficult to find fresh greens/produce when traveling abroad and systems are easily thrown out of wack. These are all products I use daily. It is a tremendous help to keep up any patterns while adding the stress of travel. #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #ultrarunning #enduranceathletes #guforit #ultrarunningmag #doepicshit #ColoRADo

The most famous important person in all of ColoRADo this week was surely Skylar💙 There may or may not have been fist fighting to get a chance to snuggle with her. Other notable appearances by the ever famous Nic Errol+Craig Lloyd. #outdoorreatailer #OR #rad #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #guforit #rad #radboulder #ultrarunningmagazine #ColoRADo

UPDATE! This naughty boy is home! Thank you Baby Jesus. He looks completely normal...but smells like fried chicken🤷🏻‍♂️🐔 I was standing there in tears opening some brown liquor and looked up on top of the roof and saw him standing there. ON the roof. Of the house. Knuckle head. Thank you to everyone for keeping me from a breakdown today. I appreciate you all💙🙏🏼 #grateful #cipollini #ultrarunning #cycling #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #Boulder #ColoRADo

You guys... We are losing our marbles over this. If any of you find yourselves riding Super James or running up off of Overland, keep an eye out for our Cipo🙏🏼 He is super friendly and sweet. He is just naughty and has scooted out the door a thousand times in the past month. Last night he got out in the middle of the night. Granted it has not yet even been 24 hrs. I suspect he is just out having fun...but he does have asthma and there are lots of murderous creatures out there in the big bad woods. Help us get our little guy home. He’s just a little welter weight at like 7# on a good day. The REWARDiEST of rewards to anyone who can find this little maniac! Personal chef for evs! Thanks everyone💙🙏🏼 #bringcipohome #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #Boulder #ColoRADo

Happy Father’s Day to this guy! Keeping this one in check one lap at a time. Thanks for putting up with all of our shenanigans and implementing the four pet rule! Probably a smart idea💙 #doepicshit #yourock #happyfathersday #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #greatdanes #ColoRADo

I had but ONE palmier left over from a top secret cooler of food for Abby+Cordis. One of my favorite things about puff pastry is that it can be made sweet or savory and can easily be produced as a vegan and/or gluten free pastry without folks knowing. It is after all hundreds of layers of fat and sugar. People easily forget about all else when sugar and fat are involved. If you are wanting to try your hand at vegan pastry and have experience with laminated dough, give puff pastry a try and simply switch out butter for margarine. Don’t change anything else, just the fat. #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #laminateddough #pastry #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #Boulder #ColoRADo

We only took three photos last night and spent the rest of the time properly enjoying everything around us at what Morgan dubbed as the “ultra running wedding of the season”. It was surely a good thing the party was not swallowed up whole by aliens. There would definitely be a large gap in the playing field and loss of both old and new guard. Here is what I do know. When we all shower, brush our hair and put on fancy clothes...we endurance athletes are super fly! Morgan and I were more relaxed last night than we have been in weeks💙 We had such a lovely time with friends we love and witnessed two beautiful friends get married. I was incredibly grateful to be fed by someone else. My buddy Evie looks better in my hat than I do. Tristan can find wildlife ANYWHERE. And Kai Kai continues to be one of my favorite people. Three cheers to you Abby+Cordis! You are so very loved. #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #ultrarunning #Boulder #ColoRADo
