Welcome to Pinetum Mind Games, Anthony M!

Anthony M is joining us for the 24 Hour Endurance Event this July.

A father of two, a brown belt in jiu jitsu, a lover of music, and a Leadville Marathon finisher, Anthony brings a little bit of everything to the Pines.

We're looking forward to seeing what happens when trail running determination meets jiu jitsu discipline.

Welcome, Anthony!

Welcome to Pinetum Mind Games, Plummers!

They're joining us for their first official race at Pinetum after spending plenty of time here pacing.

The family story goes something like this: someone signed everyone up, someone takes credit for getting the family into running, and someone just does what they're told.

Either way, the Plummers are heading to the Pines for 24 hours of adventure, and we're glad they'll be with us.

Now cue the Metallica.

See you in July!

Welcome back, Double D!

Dan is returning for another 24-hour adventure at Pinetum Mind Games.

One thing is certain: if Dan is on the course, you'll know it. Just listen for the occasional Ric Flair-style "WOOOOOO!" echoing through the pines.

We're excited to have one of our favorite local Yetis back for another round. See you in July, Dan!

Let’s give a big Pinetum Mind Games welcome to Brent B from Iowa! Brent is joining us for the first time for 12 hours.
When he’s not preparing to test himself on the trails, Brent stays plenty busy as a dairy farmer, so we already know he understands long hours, grit, and getting the job done.
Welcome to Pinetum Mind Games, Brent. We’re excited to have you join us in July!

🎬 Welcome, Blake to the Pinetum Mind Games 24 Hour!
His favorite movie is Dumb and Dumber.
Which makes perfect sense.
After all, he voluntarily signed up to run a .411-mile loop for 24 hours.

Welcome to the madness, Blake! 🐿️🏃

Help us welcome some more of our 12-hour runners to Pinetum Mind Games!

🌲 Bill R. is back for Year #2 and will be celebrating an incredible milestone: Marathon #587!

🥋 Emily S. is joining us for the first time and brings the dedication and discipline that earned her a black belt.

Two impressive runners. One 12-hour challenge.

Welcome to the pines, Bill and Emily! 🌲

Some people dream of marathons…
Julie F dreams of running in circles for 12 hours. 😅
And honestly? That means she’s going to fit in just fine here.

Julie says:
“I love short loop, timed races. My favorite race I’ve done is a 1.9 mile loop for 12 hours. I’d rather run a 12 hour race than a marathon any day!”
That’s either a very specific talent… or the exact level of loopy we’re looking for at Pinetum. 👀🌲

Welcome to the Pines for your FIRST time, Julie!

WHOA… is that the FIRST RD of Farmdale we see?! 👀

Welcome to the Pines, Mike Klopfenstein! 🌲

From directing one iconic Illinois race to signing up for 24 hours of getting loopy with us… we approve this decision. 😅

Something tells us Mike knows exactly what he signed up for. Or maybe not. After enough loops, nobody really does.

Glad to have you out there with us, Mike!

Donna says this is Year 4 at Pinetum… but we remember the beginning before UltraSignup. 👀
No registration record? Doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. We got you.
So congratulations on YEAR 5, Donna! 🌲

Also listed under her accomplishments:
🏆 Assistant Chipmunk Strava Segment Winner
You’ll have to ask her about the chipmunk she “assisted” during a race. Pretty sure the chipmunk still talks about it in therapy. 😭😂

Welcome back to the Pines, Donna!
