Annie Starkey - Expedition Team Member

Annie's enthusiasm for the outdoors comes out during her daily training runs in the Chugach range near her home in Anchorage, where she lives with her dog Jennie. Annie takes adventure one step further with her ultra-marathoning. She has finished some of the greatest races in North America, including the Leadville 100 and the Coxsackie 360. Annie has been mountaineering in the Lower 48, Mexico, and South America. Some of the hardest trips she has had were in the backcountry of Alaska - "If you can survive alder bashing and river crossings here you can do anything!"
