  • We did it! RIM 2 RIM 2 RIM.
    Across the Grand Canyon and back. 44 miles with 24,000 feet of ascent/descent. 80 degrees in the valley and 30 with snow at the peak (8300 feet). 20 hours.
    The journey was 100% self supported. Carry your own food (20 hours worth), filter water from the rivers, and don’t stop moving. I loved learning about how much water to carry, how much to eat, the supplies needed, etc.
    It was my first trip to the Grand Canyon. This country offers so many amazing national treasures. Highly encourage everyone to get out and see as much of our country as you can. The lakes, oceans, mountains, trials, cities...all of it.

    I’ve done it once in November and once a few weeks ago (May 20) it was a mind-bender for sure…the spring run was way more favorable weather-wise…did some heat exposure protocol a few weeks out and a bunch of grinding miles all year…can’t wait for the next one!

    Two types of people in the world, those who have done r2r2r and those who haven’t. In this particular case going back wasn’t optional. But when the North Rim opens you see people tapping out and taking the shuttle back. Dropping back down that second time takes a special kind of person. One who is willing to challenge themselves in a unique way and embrace the suck. Nobody can take those steps for you.
    I’m just getting into ultramarathons from being an active hiker. I just love being trained up and being able to do cool stuff on a whim. A friend called a couple weeks ago and said he wanted to do r2r2r, we were there just a couple days later doing r2r2r. That is an awesome feeling at 52. I don’t know about the misogi stuff, I want to do more lol. Rae in a day (48 mi loop), Mt Whitney from Horseshoe Meadows (38 mi), Dock to dock Trans Catalina trail (get off the early morning boat in Avalon, run to 2 harbors and catch the later boat), Speedgoat, Kodiak 100k, that is all on my list this year. Getting those miles in while I can.
    Thanks for sharing your adventures, see you out on the trails 💪

    I was there a week ago to do my annual Rim2River as an XC run, and sent it pretty hard. I'll be back, mid-Aug., to celebrate my 61st, and send another Rim2Rim as a marathon distance, from the NR Lodge Lobby. That'll be #13. My daughter and I ran our first one in 2015, on her 16th. I'd turned 53 the day before. Love running there. Vids on the channel.
