SHANNON YEWELL WEIL graduated from the Tellingtons’ Pacific Coast Equestrian Research Farm and School of Horsemanship in 1967. After that wonderfully life-altering year, she rode in several endurance rides and then spent a decade working in the Thoroughbred industry.
After challenging the 1969 Tevis Cup Ride, Shannon developed an allegiance to endurance riding and later ultrarunning. In 1977 she became a co-founder of the world-renowned Western States 100-Mile Endurance Run and served as a Trustee for over 30 years.
Today she resides in Cool, California, near the Western States Trail and Auburn, which she helped create as the Endurance Capital of the World. Her interests include horses, rescuing dogs, travel, music and chickens.
