#48 Mount Lafayette 1:08:45 ⬆️ 36:15 ⬇️ 1:45:00 🔁
L.L.T.D. 24:50 ⬆️ 18:00 ⬇️

RUN NH48: September 2014 to June 2025

By the Numbers: 
- 390 total miles / 8.12 average miles per run
- 144,696' total elevation gained / 3,015' average elevation gained per run
- 52 hours ascending / 30 hours descending / 82 hours total time (3.4 days)
- 1 hour 5 minutes 40 seconds average ascent time / 37 minutes 20 seconds average descent time / 1 hour 43 minutes average total time

Definitely a bittersweet feeling now that this has finally concluded. When I started up the Mount Tecumseh Trail in September of 2014 in La Sportiva Bumble Bee Raptors, my goal for that day was to keep the legs turning in a running motion for the first mile, mission accomplished, then I quick hiked the rest and ran the descent. By the end of RUN NH48, I was able to keep the legs turning the whole way up to the summits.

I am very proud of my ascent times, no excuses or second-guesses for any of them, it was a pure grind and I loved it. I take pride in knowing that after reaching the summit and getting the bag beaten out of me, I still had the legs and power to hammer the descents, all out, flying down rock hopping and tap dancing my way to the trailhead. Getting up and getting down safely while enjoying every moment has left many happy memories to look back upon fondly.
