Michelle Rice from Millburn, NJ, was the recipient of the 2018 scholarship, “Attending the Run Mindful retreat in Boulder was one of the best experiences of my life. Having the chance to run, meditate, socialize, and reflect with so many incredible human beings was something my soul needed on many levels. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, I will never forget the love and generosity shown to me by the people of LEKI, as well as the Olson/Loomis families.”

LEKI and Olson will choose the winner of the 2019 scholarship based on their community involvement and passion for trail running. The contest will run through May 9 and is being supported by iRunFar.com, where you can find the entry form here.
