This past weekend at Stanford Zap Fitness Coach Pete Rea took us to the Travis Landreth Memorial to pay our respects to the former UConn Grad and Farm Team Member. Landreth was an All-American who died suddenly on a run back in 2001 while on a training run in Palo Alto, he was only 24 years old. With all the runners that come to Palo Alto to race and that run by this Memorial we thought it would be good to show where you can pay your respects to Travis as we didn't even know the memorial was there on Gerona Street. Travis's family put on a race for him back in his hometown of Newburyport, MA called Trav's Trail Run. Check it out here to register for the race and here for the facebook page.
Flotrack's Justin Kopunek wrote a piece on Travis last spring that you can check out here
Here is the page put up from Letsrun.com during the time of his passing.

Speakers: Pete Rea, Travis Landreth

I worked at Metrosport across from the Stanford campus with Travis in 99 and 2000. I left Palo Alto in December of 2000 and just by chance heard about Travis some months later. He was always a blast to work with and seemed like just a genuine, nice guy. I'll always remember him.

As one of the farm teamers who was in that workout and running next to Travis when it happened, I am proud to see that tree growing so tall and strong! I had the fortune of stopping by the tree myself on saturday with a former who teammate who had first introduced me to Travis in 1997 before we headed to the track and watched Rupp set the stage for an American record and Solinsky crack 27:00! A very special day indeed.
