My name is Sean Blanton, but my friends call me Sean Michael, or RunBum.
I've run over 300 ultra marathons. I've been first, last and everything in-between.
I started and own RunBum Races, where we put on 11 trail and ultra races a year from central Florida, to southern Virginia.
I hope that with my trail running and race directing experience, that I can help you train smarter, run further, and fall in love with trail running.
I started running trails, just so I could climb mountains faster. I've been hooked ever since. I love integrating nutrition, and some woo-woo into my training and race routine. My approach is a bit different, but has yielded positive results on the course, and in life.
If I'm not out on the course racing, you'll probably see me out with my camera on the race course, the climbing crag, or up on a mountain.
