Tim Olson

Western States 2012 winner Timothy Olson has been unveiled as a North Face athlete for the coming season. The 29-year old has a big future in ultra-running and will have been courted by many of the big brands over the last few months we suspect…

The full story on the North Face blog states:

“Timothy has the passion exploration that we all share at The North Face, “ said Aaron Carpenter, vice president of marketing for The North Face. “The joy he gets from running in the outdoors, and pushing his mental and physical limits is inspiring to the entire The North Face family. We are excited to work with him in accomplishing his goals.”

The North Face ultra-running Team includes Jez Bragg, Sébastien Chaigneau, Lizzy Hawker, Tsuyoshi Kaburaki, Dean Karnazes, Nikki Kimball, Hall Koerner, Kami Semick, Diane Van Deren, Michael Wardian and Mike Wolfe.
