The ButteCast with Bill Foley

No. 275: Ozzie Rosenleaf


Listen Later

Today’s guest is someone everyone knows. Or, at least you know of him.

He might just be the guy you see running down the street, no matter the weather. He is Donald “Ozzie” Rosenleaf, a 1991 Anaconda High School graduate who lives in Butte with his wife Sunvee. 

Ozzie has reached one-name status in the Mining City. When people speak of him, there is no need to use his last name.

Usually that conversation about Ozzie goes something like, “Did you hear what Ozzie is doing?”

People think Ozzie is a little crazy because of his love of running. He has run more miles than Forrest Gump since the soon-to-be 52-year-old Ozzie took up running in his late 20s.

That includes running a full marathon in all 50 states in the nation. He ran five marathons in five states in five days. Then, he ran six marathons in six states in six days.

Even runners who other people are nuts think Ozzie is a little out there. He also as an inspiration for them and others to show that they, too, can do great — or crazy — things if they put their mind to it.

Ozzie’s most recent race was to run the Copper Kings 100 in Butte. That was a 100-mile race that Ozzie finished in just over 24 yours.

It was the third time that he ran a race of at least 100 miles. That goes with a marathon total that is approaching 100.

Listen in to hear Ozzie talk about finishing the 100-mile race. Listen as he talks about how he got into running in the first place. Listen to hear that Ozzie really isn’t that crazy after all.
