JOE GRANT
Joe Grant is a mountain athlete living in Durango, Colorado. Born in the UK, Joe grew up in France and began running in his late teens as a way to explore wild places under his own power. He has been running ultras for over 15 years, and has a diverse and extensive resume competing in trail and mountain running events around the world in places such as Colorado, the Alps, Mexico, Alaska, and Japan. Joe has also set records on the Colorado 14ers and the Colorado Trail.
Joe works in close partnership with Black Diamond to develop trail and mountain running equipment and content. His most recent film "Ancestral Footprints" focuses on the impacts of uranium mining in the Grand Canyon region. Looking ahead, Joe has plans to pursue more backyard adventures with an artistic approach and a perspective centered in nature.
