John Trent – Western States board member and URM columnist

by Amy Clark 08/11/2020
written by Amy Clark 08/11/2020

John Trent has become a fixture in the ultrarunning community on the West Coast and is one of the best storytellers in the sport. Not only has he been on the Western States board since 2004, he’s also a race director and 10-time finisher of Western States. We discuss John’s big plans for 2020 prior to COVID-19 and his incredible ability to tell people’s stories in his column, Voice of the Sport. We also discuss some of his personal experiences at Western States that brought him to the sport of ultrarunning back in the 90s.
