TRT50 Race Report: You can run and cry at the same time

By: Lynn Tsai: After extensive research, otherwise known as typing “running coach Truckee” into Google, I reached out to Peter Fain. I think the first thing I told him was that I hate running uphill; I didn’t realize who I was talking to at that point.  Fast forward six months, and I’ve met a wonderful group of humans, seen beautiful trails, and was preparing to run the TRT 50. 

Lynn's first 50 miler!
