I started running ultramarathons on April 3, 1993, when I ran the American River 50. I started this web site sometime before May 15, 1995 (that's the earliest record I have), when I was working for Silicon Graphics and selling/supporting web products. Since I retired (OK, I was laid off) on October 13, 1997 I've been operating this web site as a free service to the ultrarunning community (especially the RDs), since I love the sport and the people who are part of it.

I began accumulating running shoes and writing reviews of them, and the site started to take off.
