Elinor Fish

A mountain girl at heart, Elinor traded the Canadian Rockies for the Colorado Rockies in 2006 to work at Trail Runner magazine and lead trail-running retreats. She has run competitively for 20 years, and last year finished the Leadville Trail 100-mile run. Though trail running is her activity of choice on any given day, Elinor's other past times include yoga, cycling, alpine skiing and chasing after her 3-year-old son, Reed.

Two truths and one lie:

• I blame Colorado's mild weather for making me a total cold-weather wimp.
• I plan to compete in both the Leadville 100-mile bike and run events this year.
• Moving to Colorado was meant to be temporary until I married a charming mountain biker/tele skier/architect.
