On a lark one day in July 2018, Michelle decided to see how fast she could run Boulder's popular Mesa Trail (in & out) with just water and a gel -- no support, no gear dropped, just for pure joy. She ran the 13.4 total miles in 1 hour 59 minutes 10 seconds. To her surprise, her run earned her the Fastest Known Time (FKT) for all women running this trail. The woman holding second place ran it in 3 hours 3 minutes 51 seconds, so you can see why we think Michelle is INCREDIBLE. Our Michelle plans to go back and beat her own record some day, since she didn't feel she was really pushing it that day.
