Mike Obery from South Africa was introduced to running by his brother a few years back and since then, he has been on a tear checking off his Western States 100 qualifiers.
We met Mike at the Cappadocia Ultra Trail in Turkey and was instantly drawn to his warmth and passion for life.
He tells us how Western States 100 has motivated him and is his ultimate ultra goal.
Along the way, he has completed some pretty epic races including Ultra Trail Cape Town and Karkloof 100 Miler in South Africa.
We have no doubt he will be toeing the line in Olympic Valley, California in the near future!
