Join us as we dive into the inspiring journey of Brandon Dugi - a dedicated trail runner and high school coach who recently completed the Western States 100 in under 24 hours! Brandon discusses his experiences at Western States, his deep connection with his Diné community and culture, growing up with the tradition of morning runs and prayer on the reservation, the role of nature in shaping his perspective and running career and the impact of trail running on high school athletes and the potential for future Native American runners.
