Rick Trujillo - Running with Elk
28 Jan 2009 To further the mythic status of Rick Trujillo, and the story that he runs with Elk, check out the "story from Runner's World about him":http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-243-297--12984-1-1X2X3X4X5X6X7X8X9X10-11,00.html. The guy is one of the originators of mountain running, and is quite a character. He won the Hardrock 100 in Silverton (a friggin incredibly difficult race) eating Oreos and Mountain Dew, has broken his back, and has run over incredibly high peaks. There are other great mountain runners, and I'm certainly only learning about these guys, but Mr. Trujillo is pretty impressive.
