To Imogene, a Flagstaff Love Letter

"If you've ever set your mind to accomplish something very challenging and succeeded--battered and bruised but not broken--this book will resonate." - Stephanie E., verified purchaser

In this inspiring collection, more than 70 trail runners confide--in essays, poems, quips, photos, selfies, and email--their personal encounters with the Imogene Pass Run in western Colorado.

As these runners have trained for, endured, and rejoiced in her 17.1 miles and nearly 10,000 feet of elevation change, Imogene has become an object of profound affection. With exclusive watercolors by runner/painter Linda Sherman and more than 100 full-color photos and illustrations, these pages provide entertaining, poignant, and transformative perspectives into a unique bond shared between runners and race.

Whether you're passionate about running, eager to explore the majestic Rocky Mountains, or just a sucker for an authentic love story, To Imogene, a Flagstaff Love Letter shares themes that will touch your heart--compassion, community, competition, grit, humor, and above all, connection.
