Marianne Hogan
Hogan pulled off the second most impressive Western States/UTMB double in history, placing third and second, respectively. (Kilian Jornet won both in 2011.) It was the culmination of a remarkable return to elite racing after a severe spiral leg fracture in 2017, and several subsequent surgeries. Originally from Bedford, Quebec, the former San Diego State track athlete lives in Montreal. – John Medinger. Photo: Howie Stern
