Chris Price

I am married to Elissa Price and a new father of an adorable little baby girl who loves to go camping. When I’m not running or spending time with my family, I work as a nurse (RN) in the intensive care unit.

I like super-rugged, mountain courses…that’s my thing. The more climbing the better, as far as I am concerned.

Hometown:  Quincy, CA

Social: 
 

Favorite Beer: If it’s cold I’m happy.  If it’s made by Sierra Nevada I’m even happier.

Best recovery meal: pizza and/or burritos

Guilty Pleasure:  Listening to Taylor Swift. 

Other Hobbies: Backpacking, fishing, hunting, watching SF Giants baseball.

Best thing about VFuel: It’s easy on the stomach, there are so many great tasting flavors and you can keep them down late in the race!

Favorite running memory:  My pacer, Michael Chamoun, pointing out a herd of elk to me at sunrise towards the end of Hardrock 100.
