I was hiking in Yosemite this weekend when suddenly 5-7 guys run by wearing jeans, long-sleeve collared shirts in solid purple, and shoes that looked like a version of Keens. They were running as fast as possible while navigating other hikers. It was reckless but impressive. This trail starts at 4500 ft and climbs 3000 feet over 3 miles with a surface that is un-runnable. It’s rocky and mostly covered in snow after halfway.
Soon after they came by a dad and two younger boys followed. I asked what group they were with and he said it was just their family. They all had blonde hair. And as we headed down the trail we came across three women walking separately. One was barefoot, wearing a long purple dress that matched the boys and was carrying a camera with a giant lens. Later were mom and a second daughter who also carries a large camera.
Does anyone recognize this family of runners?
