Addie Bracy

After a long career on the track and road and training as a sports psychology consultant, Addie ran her first trail race at the US Mountain Running Championships in 2016 after narrowly missing qualifying for the Olympic Trials in the steeplechase. She won that race and has been hooked on the trails ever since. She ran her first 50k in 2017 and by 2018 had moved up to the 50 mile and 100 mile distance. Since then Addie has competed in some of the most competitive ultras like Western States 100, Leadville Trail 100, and Lake Sonoma 50.
