Anton Krupicka

Anton Krupicka is one crazy run­ner. Crazy good. He won the Leadville Trail 100 mile endurance run in 2006 and 2007, fin­ish­ing over three hours ahead of his near­est com­peti­tor in 2007. That time was also the sec­ond fastest recorded time ever.

Anton has an uncon­ven­tional per­spec­tive on train­ing, and run­ning in gen­eral. He prefers to leave all gad­gets at home, such as heart rate mon­i­tors, watches, GPS track­ers, and some­times even shoes. He runs about 200 miles a week, most bare­foot. His phi­los­o­phy for run­ning is cen­tered on a belief that the activ­ity is a chance to return to our roots and become one with nature.
