Hal Koerner Joins The North Face Team

Hal Koerner will add to the already big list of great ultrarunners running for The North Face (Karnazes, Kimball, Semick, Wardian, etc.) . News came out yesterday he is going to be part of the ultrarunning team starting this very next weekend at the The North Face Endurance Challenge Championships in San Francisco.

Owner of  a running store in Ashland, Oregon, Koerner won this year his second Western States 100 in a row. On his agreement with TNF he said:

The North Face has been committed to the ultra scene for some time now and hasn’t backed down. I’m attracted to this characteristic and would love to make trail running a more familiar activity. I think that enthusiasm creates motivation. I like to promote ultrarunning as much as one person can and hopefully steer more people into making the uncommon, common.
