The people
behind your miles.
Jason Green has finished over 100+ ultramarathons ranging from 50K-100miles and maybe DNFd & DNS just as many .
Founded by Jason Green.
Jason Green founded Yeti Trail Runners in his garage in 2010, when a small group of friends began showing up on weekends to run four miles of hand-built trail connecting a state park with a local watershed conservancy. What started as informal runs quickly grew into a tight-knit community drawn together by sweat, dirt, and a shared love of being a little off-center.
Every January 1st, the Yeti Garage Club hosted the free Yeti Spaghetti Trail Marathon, a New Year’s Day tradition that brought more friends each year. As the community grew, Yeti Trail Runners hosted its first official registration-based event: the Yeti Snakebite 50 Miler.
Yeti Trail Runners went on to become the first truly off-centered race company in ultrarunning, blending skate park energy, indie show grit, and DIY ethos with long miles on rugged trails—helping redefine what ultrarunning culture could look and feel like.
Sam has over a decade of ultra finishes ranging from 50K to 100 miles.
Meet Sam Taylor
Sam has been with the Yetis since the beginning. She oversees timing and volunteer coordination, and recently launched her own race — the Canebrake 200 Miler — where she serves as race director. She also hosts an annual women's retreat.
Meet Jarian Rich
Around 2012, I happened to look to my left and a Yeti appeared. His spirit captured all of us from that moment on. Jarian has become part of the soul of Yeti Trail Runners celebrating every finish with hugs, high fives, laughter, and a spirit that simply can’t be missed. Through countless miles, long nights, first finishes, DNFs, and unforgettable moments, he’s reminded all of us what this community is really about.
Meet Rebekah & Dan Dingess
Rebekah and Dan Dingess have been with the Yetis for several years and have become a huge part of what makes these races feel like home. From helping oversee countless race day details to making sure runners are taken care of deep into the night, they help hold the whole thing together. You’ll also find them out on the trails themselves running Yeti races, encouraging runners forward, and helping people get to the finish when things get hard. More than anything, they are dear friends to us and friends to every Yeti racer they meet. Their kindness, spirit, and willingness to help others reflects exactly what this community is all about.
