When Michelle Boland won the Drummer Hill 50K last June, a 10-month hiatus followed before she stepped up to another ultramarathon starting line. When Boland finally did so in April 2026, she raced to victory at the Wawayanda Trail Fest 50-miler in New Jersey. Less than two months later, Boland was back at it again when she made her first appearance at Beast Coast Trail Running’s Edge Hill Trail Race on Saturday, June 13, in Ashfield, Mass.
