When I was looking for my first 50 back in 2015, I found the challenge I wanted and more at the Sheep Mountain Endurance Run. When I wanted an adventure for my 40th trip around the sun I knew where to look. There is more to running the finish time and Strava segments. It's about being part of a community, giving back to your fellow runners. That is the goal of the 2020 Trail Crew - to not only run and challenge ourselves through the miles, but to give back. 




ProCycling 
The staff at the shop is easy to talk to, knowledgeable and responsive. They carry our favorite bicycle brand - Specialized - along with a few other high quality brands. They have everything from commuter bikes to the latest tech for your dream racing machine on the shop floor, as well as helmets, shoes and many other accessories (Specialized shoes, Smith helmets, and awesome Gore Bikeware.) They also typically have that small part you are looking for; from that broken brake lever thanks to the last crash to a buckle for those perfectly fitted shoes in the shop. If it's something they have to order, they are quick to take care of it. Stop in and say hi, and let them take care of you.



Skirt Sports
As part of my return to running ultras, came the struggle to find something comfortable, functional and good looking to wear. After much trial and error, I made the leap - discovering that the design of Skirt Sports fulfilled all my needs. Built in shorties that covered my legs and prevented chafing. Pockets that actually held something! And lightweight, cute skirts to match all styles - from frilly to the simple. Clothing designed by women athletes for women athletes of all shapes, sizes, ages, ethnic backgrounds, athletic abilities and more.

Skratch Labs
All natural hydration is just a small part of what Skratch Labs is about. Real food alternatives based on science and hydration that reflects what's actually lost in sweat. I've been using Skratch Labs for years and my gut has never been happier. Add in the Feed Zone family of cookbooks and you've got everything covered - from breakfast to training and then to the dinner table with friends.
