Episode #17: Luis Escobar

Luis Escobar is a legend in the trail running community. Luis is a full time adventure photographer, avid trail runner and race director for his own running company, All We Do Is Run. As a runner, he was one of the inaugural ultrarunners invited down to join the infamous race through Copper Canyons in the book "Born To Run." He is a 8x Western States finisher, 12x HURT 100 finisher & one time champion, and finisher among more of the most difficult events we know to exist in the ultrarunning space including Badwater and Leadville. As a race director, he plans to host the second annual Snowman Race this year in Bhutan. The Snowman Race is the ultimate race for climate action, taking runners over 123 miles of extremely challenging terrain through the Himalayan Mountains. All of that to say… you are going to want to tune into this one!
