Jesse ran his first ultra in his hometown in Michigan back in 2009, a 50k. His laid back take on nutrition and multiple references to what a "new normal" feels like during a long race were unique and refreshing. He is a nursing student and sales rep and now runs the trails of Flagstaff, AZ. He shares two trails in AZ everyone should try if they go there. Enjoy his account of his first ultra among other things.
