James Varner (he/him), Race Director and Owner of Rainshadow Running, has been running trail ultras since 2001 and organizing races since 2004. His approach to directing races comes from the idea that he is throwing a party for friends that just happens to involve a little running. The settings he picks for Rainshadow races feature some of the most visually stunning scenery in the United States.
James enjoys trail running for the solace and simplicity, for the excitement and the beauty, for the challenge and confidence, for the lessons he's learned about himself and the world itself, and for the places he runs and the people he meets.

Kathryn "Katy" Farrell (she/they), Race Director and Owner, joined the Rainshadow staff in early 2020 but has been running ultras since 2015 and has run most of our races. Secret Beach is her favorite because of the beauty, the solitude and the challenge.
In addition to running experiences Katy brings fresh and out of the box perspectives to our races thanks to their passion for the arts (comedy, theater and music), yoga and social justice issues. |
