I had an amazing summer filled with new experiences, meaningful friendships, and the chance to race against some of the best youth trail runners in the world. I'm proud of my performance at the Youth Skyrunning World Championships, where I placed 3rd overall, and at the UTMB YCC, where I earned 2nd place in both the 15k and "The Revenge" race the following day. These races challenged me in new ways and taught me how to dig deep and keep pushing, even when things got tough.

Brooke was recently a double victor in both the Vertical Kilometer and Skyrace (U16 Category) at the 2025 Youth Skyrunning World Championships.

We had a chance to catch up with Brooke after the races; her comments below.

We had a chance to catch up with Enzo Giampoalo. Enzo is 17 years old, lives in Lewiston, Maine where he is The Lewiston Highschool Team Co-Captain for both Track and XC.
