Description

One of best known ultrarunners of his generation definitely has not stopped going big and going long ... he now does it across four different sports.  Running, climbing, skiing, and cycling (but no hiking!) 

"I never thought or said, 'I'm not a runner anymore'; the space just opened up to do these other sports I'd always been interested in."

Once known as the "Apostle of Minimalism", Tony might now be considered one of the most thoughtful, experienced, and insightful participants and commentator of endurance sports.

"Ultimately you're just out there trying to develop and honest relationship with yourself.  That's what your exploring.  And the setting is there to facilitate that."
