Adam Kimble
Fun Facts: I’ve been a participant on two television shows and won them both: The Price is Right and Discovery Channel’s The Wheel!
Favorite Race Distance(s): 100-milers! But I love to run every distance and remind myself that they all hurt in different ways.
Proudest Accomplishment: Setting the Fastest Known Time on the Tahoe Rim Trail in 2020 and breaking Kilian Jornet’s 10-year-old record.
Goals for 2023-24: Win the Badwater 135 in 2024!
Favorite rabbit Gear: The Shredders for shorts because I carry my phone on most runs and love that I don’t need a belt, and EZ anything (SS, LS, Pullover, etc.) for tops because they are the softest and most comfortable running tops out there!

Sandi Nypaver
Fun Facts: My first trail/ultra race ever was 100 miles. (As a running coach, I wouldn't recommend this!). I found ultra/trail running in college through a series of interesting events that led to me doing a 10-day trek across Akshayuk Pass (Baffin Island) as a youth ambassador for the non-profit Impossible2Possible. - I believe in never passing up a carousel ride.
Favorite Race Distance(s): For an ultra runner, I actually have a blast using trail half marathons as tune-up races. Both the 50k and 50-mile distances have been good adventures in recent years, though I'm open to that changing in 2024.
Proudest Accomplishment: While I could list a race here, it doesn't quite feel right to me. I've faced quite a few learning opportunities in my running journey and I'm really proud of myself for growing through them. I'm so glad I see racing and myself as an athlete so differently than I did 10+ years ago. Running has never been more enjoyable to me than it is now.
Goals for 2023-24: The San Juan mountains have a special place in my heart, so I'm hoping to get a Hardrock Qualifier. Still deciding on some other goals. I also really enjoy exploring Colorado through summiting 14ers and have done ~40+, so my non-racing goals include doing the class 3 14ers I haven't done yet. Another goal I always have is to enjoy the journey as much as possible.
Favorite rabbit Gear: I'm often in the Steady State tank and Crop Hop in the warmer months, while also rotating through the Fuel n' Fly, Speed Leggy, and Summit Chasers. As the temps cool down, I'm loving the new EZ Pullover and EZ Joggers.
