Great interview – but gah! – what's Adam gonna wear on his feet for BC100k? (J/K) Cheers… great work
One of my favorite runners 🏃♀ Always keeping it real for all of us
It’s a true travesty that this guy isn’t a fully-sponsored athlete. Shame on Saucony and others for not paying him enough to Live and support a family.
I feel this, life is messy and crazy busy. So many folks want to criticize the growing industry and changes. There is no way forward to get more folks like Adam to run full time unless trail running becomes a bigger business. It’s a real bummer guys like him can’t focus full time on running to realize their full potential
