Hands down my favorite run out there! The San Juan Hands down my favorite run out there! The San Juan Solstice 50 Mile loop around Lake city is always so challenging and so scenic. From the deep, cold creek crossings at 5am to the miles upon miles above 13,000 feet, it hard to not come back each year. But what a day for my 10th @sanjuansolstice50! Thanks @tedmahon for pacing the last 10 miles and always being my rabbit 🐇 #sanjuansolstice50 #sjs50 #lakecitycolorado #lettheoutsidein @stio
