Johen DeLeon is an up and coming pro trail runner from Crested Butte, CO. We discovered Johen at the Cirque Series A-Basin last September where he finished 2nd behind Patrick Kipngeno in a very competitive field. We did an interview with Johen after the race where the Freetrail team and the extended Freetrail audience fell in love with Johen, his personality, and his story. During that interview an idea was born to crowdfund Johen's participation at back to back Golden Trail World Series events on the following two weekends. It was the start of a great friendship.

Today, Johen joins for a real long form chat about his background, goals for the future, and a really exciting new partnership with SATISFY. This weekend, Johen will race at The Big Alta 28k, making his competitive debut with his new sponsors. Follow Johen on IG Follow Johen on Strava Register for TrailCon
