After finishing third at the AUS championship last year, Kelsey Hogan decided to aim higher and took this season off from competition to train for a 165km ultramarathon. An ultramarathon is not something that is easily achieved, but the Halifax native and master of sport psychology major has completed more than 10 of them. She'll be running The Grand Raid Réunion, also known as la Diagonale des Fous on Réunion Island October 20-23. Its an annual invitation-only 165km race with over 3000 participants.
