Photos: The 2015 Whiteface Sky Running Weekends Vertical K & Marathon!

Here are our photos from the Whiteface Vertical Weekend in the Adirondacks of New York, which included a Vertical K on Saturday and the marathon on Sunday. Red Newt Racing had an epic weekend of adventure in store and put on another awesome event! A big thanks goes out to Ian Golden of Red Newt Racing & Jan Wellford for making this race a reality. Congrats to all of the runners who braved the weekend and without the volunteers, these races would never be possible.
