Western States Race Director Craig Thornley

Craig Thornley went camping with his brother in 1978 and had no idea his tent was set up on the course of a then obscure mountain race called "The Western States Endurance Run". The race captivated him and set him on a path of volunteering for the race, running the race himself, and eventually becoming the Race Director for the most iconic 100 mile race in the world. Craig and I share a lot of laughs with stories you have never heard before about some of the biggest names in the race. He also give a fascinating look into what his day to day life is like doing the big job, and some of is favorite moments.
