My journey into ultra running began five years ago when a standard marathon no longer felt challenging enough. The CUT Trail 2024 was my most challenging race yet - 119km through desert canyons with 3,800m of elevation gain. Running for nearly 24 hours, including 10 hours in complete darkness and 11km in freezing temperatures, taught me that the mind can push the body far beyond what seems possible. Each ultra is a unique adventure that tests not just physical endurance, but mental fortitude and problem-solving skills.
