Welcome to The Black Canyon 100k Women's Elite Field Preview - presented by SOAR Running!

On Women of Distance, our race previews are different: You'll hear from a deep field of athletes including those you may already recognize, those you may not - but should, and even familiar faces who are new to this race or distance.

You won't hear outside opinions, analysis, or predictions - but rather directly from each athlete: their own words, thoughts, feelings, and goals heading into the February 14th race.

Because of the depth, we've split this preview into two separate episodes. This one features the athletes coming to the Black Canyon 100k and/or the 100k distance for the first time.

After listening to the episode, check out the accompanying playlist created by the elite field, just for you!
