Jade is a life-long Pine “Cricker” who was running around the Rocksylvania mountains before she even knew trail running was a thing. Running her first trail race at the original Call of the Wilds, she discovered other people who like to hide in the woods for hours on end as much as she does. More of a hard ass than a bad ass, she’s likely to tell you to quit whining and run. Jade served as co-Race Director for Eastern States 100 in 2019, and she's excited to not only serve on the ESTEA board, but also stepped into the Eastern States 100 Race Director role from 2021 to 2022.

Kayla started trail running when she lived in Northeast Ohio during nursing school. When she moved back to Central Pennsylvania, she recalls thinking "these people are crazy - they are literally running mountains." Since then, she's continued to run numerous Pennsylvania trail events and has completed three 100 mile races. In addition to being part of the ESTEA and helping to coordinate safety at the Eastern States 100, she is also the vice president of the Allegheny Trailrunners; she helps to coordinate volunteers and safety for both of their events, Dirty Kiln and Rock 'N The Knob. Kayla loves to introduce new people to our Pennsylvania trails because just like her when she started trail running here, so many have lived here all of their lives and have never seen the beauty the trails have to offer. When she's not out on the trails, Kayla works as a pediatric nurse practitioner and enjoys spending time with family and friends (which usually involves being outside).
