Deborah Livingston

About

Deborah (Debbie) Livingston is a Connecticut-based ultrarunner with more than two decades of racing across trail, mountain, and multi-day formats. She met her husband and regular running partner Scott at the Vermont 50 and together they have pursued numerous FKT efforts, including a 242-mile journey across the New England Trail from Mount Monadnock, New Hampshire to the Long Island Sound. Her single-race résumé is equally strong: she won the 2022 HURT 100 on Oahu (7th overall), finished 1st woman and 2nd overall at the 2022 MUT 100k (14:21), set the women's course record at the Laurel Highlands Ultra (70.5 miles) in 2012 by nearly twelve minutes, and placed 10th woman at the gruelling 2023 Dragon's Back Race (240k across Wales). A decorated age-group competitor — 1st among 50+ women at the 2025 Vermont 100k — Livingston represents the quiet durability that defines the sport's most enduring figures.
