Greensboro's Joe Randene during the Triple Lakes Trail Race 40-mile run in October 2017. Randene finished in eight hours and 30 minutes, a pace of 12:45 per mile, and he'll compete in the event again Saturday.
Joe Randene, right, with brother-in-law Chris Stoll, who holds the belt buckle Randene earned in the 100-mile race in Statesville. 'Chris has a spinal chord injury and lives in pain everyday,' Randene says. 'He is a big inspiration to me.'
Joe Randene once weighed 330 pounds. Randene is inspired by the quote, 'Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear.'
The start of the Allison Woods Halloween Hobble 100-Mile run in Statesville.
Joe Randene with Cary's Jacky Hunt-Broersma, who will compete in Saturday's Triple Lakes Trail Race 40-mile run in Greensboro and is a Boston Marathon veteran. 'Jacky is a cancer amputee and started running after her amputation,' Randene says. 'She is a rare breed "Amputee Trail Runner." Triple Lakes 2018 will be her first ultra. She is amazing and inspiring.'
