To celebrate my YouTube channel hitting 50k subs, I did my first 50k. It was a pandemic 50k that I ran around the neighborhood by myself, but I promised that, when the channel reached 100k, I’d do another big race. I didn’t actually think I’d ever get to 100k, so it was an easy promise to make.
But then 100k actually happened just two years later, and by then, I knew the 100k I wanted to race was Black Canyon. But in 2023, I was invited to run the Tokyo Marathon. In 2024, I needed to prepare for the London Marathon. And in 2025, I had to spend the winter getting ready to run a fast half marathon in Houston.
But in 2026, this is finally my year. I finally get to train for the Black Canyon 100k.
