The Cocodona 250 is regarded as the longest and toughest of the 200 mile distance endurance events.

Starting just North of Phoenix Arizona and ending in Flagstaff, this race traverses several ecosystems and terrain. From exposed desert to pine forests and mountains.

With nearly 40,000 feet of elevation gain and a 125 hour time limit, this race will test one’s physical endurance and mental toughness.

This would be my 3rd attempt at a 200 mile distance event. Having dropped from the Moab 240 and Tahoe 200 in years past, I was determined to get across the finish.

Follow my journey as I experience 5 fantastic days in my effort to reach Flagstaff. All the while remembering to take it one step, one mile, and one day at a time.
