Craig Thornley-Race Director Western States 100

I sat down with Craig Thornley whose day job is race directing the Western States 100.  Craig has been the race director since 2013 and he shared details and stories that extend beyond just the running part.  He has also run the race on several occasions and is one race shy of having run the event ten times.  Prior to his RD duties for Western he was a co-founder of the very popular Waldo 100k and he’s also an avid rock climber.  At the time of our conversation they were still up in the air about whether or not Western would be a go but if you’re following the race you know its ON!!!
