Spring running in Beacon Hill Park

lancecalebmiller:

I don’t think you’ll come across many people having as much fun out on a run as Drew, as his approach to running is as much about having new experiences as it is about personal bests. Drew has run a few marathons and a trail ultra, and recently joined the ranks of the Marathon Maniacs by running a marathon and his first ultra on consecutive weekends. He has also set his sights on running a marathon in all 50 states.

In several of Drew’s recent races, you may have caught him having a beer mid-race, taking it all in at times when so many of us are just focused on being finished-with-the-damn-race-already. Drew, already an avid cook, has taken to brewing his own beer, which I think is fitting for his personality and his approach to running as it is an activity not done solely for the end result; you have to enjoy the process of getting there, too.

I photographed Drew on the trails of Turkey Mountain in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Drew runs Tulsa.

Love this. It also makes me laugh because it seems like all trail runners love their beer (myself included)!
