Background (January 2017)

My wife (Becky) is a horribly addicted runner and has been for the last 10 years. What started as a mild interest leading to her training and participation in the 2007 Shanghai marathon has evolved into an obsession with Ultra-Trail races (the longer and tougher the better).

She had just completed the Vibram Hong Kong 100 Km (in January 2017) and during a quiet moment was researching her next challenge.
