The Reason Behind This Adventure

The Reason Behind This Adventure

Hi, my name is Leanne! I’m so glad you stopped by. I hope by you being here I can add some valuable time back into your day!

I am an ultra -runner. Of course, I did not start there, though. I actually started my running journey by walking. After losing my mother to breast cancer, a friend of mine suggested we participate in a 60km walk to raise awareness. So, I did, seven years in a row!

After the 2nd year I started to get bored with “just” walking. Eventually, I slowly added running and ran my first marathon in 2013. It wasn’t long after that I was introduced to trail running.

The first step transitioning from a road runner to a trail runner was easy. The next step in deciding to run my first ultra required a little more work. Jumping into multi-day stage racing was a whole new level of adventure.

In addition to a new training schedule, I quickly discovered there was a need for specialized gear. There were so many options and recommendations, narrowing down what worked in a variety of different scenarios became quite consuming.

Many local stores did not carry gear specific to ultra-running. I found that I was ordering from different sites and, at times, different countries! I wished there was a place online that had a collection of items and gear that made the job a little easier.

So I had an idea…

My goal with this site is to offer suggestions from personal experience and input from ultra-running friends, wherein we have collectively discovered some amazing products that allow you to put the focus back onto the goals you are training for.
