About

Jupiter Carera Casas is a Mexican trail runner who established himself as one of the dominant forces in ultra running within Mexico before breaking through internationally at the 2024 Black Canyon 100K, where he placed second in 7:39:56 — less than a minute behind course record-setter Hayden Hawks — to earn a Golden Ticket to the Western States 100.
