Run the Alps Switzerland : 30 Must Do Trail Runs
Kim is co-author of the trail running guide to the Swiss Alps with Doug Mayer, from Run the Alps. The book's inspiring photos and routes come from Dan & Janine Patitucci. The book is full of their photos, stories from top athletes, Swiss Alps travel beta, and tips for out on the trail. Published May 2018.
Running, writing, and photographing in the mountains have taken me to Nepal, India, Bulgaria, Kyrgyzstan, and all over the Alps. Originally from Chicago, I've followed an unlikely path to end up in the mountains. I have a little grey cat, Pinot, who's traveled with me from France to Italy, Germany to Switzerland, to California, and to wherever the trails lead next. SITES
