Jason Green is a super cool guy. He always has a positive attitude and a big warm smile on his face. Jason genuinely wants everyone to feel like they belong and give them the opportunity to realize just what kinds of amazing things they can accomplish. Jason does so many things in support of the community and of the trails he loves. This is a guy that really cares and puts his heart into all that he does. I have seen him wait at the finish line of the Yeti 100 to give hugs to every last runner that crosses that line.

Shannon Howell just wants to be faster than the boys.

The Grindstone 100 was beautiful, adverse, well organized, and surrounded by an amazing community in Virginia. This is an account of one lady’s trek to a buckle and a Hardrock Qualifier and all the Keystone Light, rocks, and chaffing that go into an epic finish.
