2025 marks the 8th annual Women of Hardrock Discussion Panel & Community Social, presented by The North Face. Panel host Gina Lucrezi created this event in 2017 with the intent to bring more awareness and celebration to the women athletes of the Hardrock 100. Sharing one’s background and experiences has the ability to inspire, educate, and empower others. It has the power to bridge the gap in relatability, showing people what is possible and and what is achievable (both on and off the trail).
Hosts:
Gina Lucrezi – Trail Sisters Founder
Meghan Hicks – Hardrock 100 Board President
