Novi attorney, ultramarathoner dies during 102-mile race in Colorado mountains
A Novi family law attorney and veteran ultramarathoner died Friday, July 11, while running the 102.5-mile Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run in the mountains of Colorado. The San Juan County (Colorado) Sheriff's Department and Silverton, Colorado Medical Rescue team received a search-and-rescue call shortly after 9 a.m. July 11 about CPR in progress on a person on the racecourse by safety team members with the Hardrock 100 ultramarathon, the rescue team said in a news release on Facebook. Response required sheriff's and medical rescue crews to take 4x4 offroad vehicles on backcountry roads and to then hike a quarter mile up a steep, rugged, remote trail to the scene, near Gold Lake on Little Giant Trail. Resuscitation efforts were ultimately unsuccessful. The San Juan County Coroner's office later confirmed the identity of the deceased woman as Elaine Stypula, 60, of Oakland County, Michigan, the rescue team said on Facebook. A cause of death was not released. Stypula ran a family law firm in Novi. Her profile on her website mentions, "In her free time, Elaine has completed multiple Ironman triathlons and currently competes in ultra distance runs, adventure races of 100 or more miles and mountain climbing." Ultramarathons are races longer than a 26.2-mile marathon that can be 100 miles or more and often run in extreme conditions of heat or elevation. Stypula's Instagram page includes photos of her apparently summitting Mount Rainier, Washington, and running ultramarathons in places like South Africa and Denali, Alaska. "My beautiful, vibrant mom unexpectedly passed away this morning. I am at a loss for words," Anna Rose Sebring posted to Instagram on July 11, adding on July 13, "My whole entire heart is with you in heaven. You were an angel to this world making friends everywhere you went. You were my biggest fan, supporter, and believer. You never stopped challenging yourself and always found something new to do." The Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run is a 102.5-mile race in Silverton, Colorado, that features a 33,197-foot climb and descent, for a total elevation change of 66,394 feet, all at an average elevation of more than 11,000 feet. The run is held on a loop course on four-wheel-drive roads, dirt trails and cross-country trails in southern Colorado's San Juan Range. "We are deeply saddened to share that a beloved member of our Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run family has passed away during this year's event," race organizers stated on the Hardrock 100's website. "Our hearts are with their family, friends and fellow runners as we grieve this tremendous loss. We are committed to caring for runners, crews, volunteers and all members of our community through the event's duration and beyond."

Ultrarunner, 60, dies after collapsing during 102-mile mountain race in Colorado
A seasoned ultrarunner from Michigan died after she collapsed during an arduous 102-mile footrace through a series of steep mountain passes in Colorado Friday. Elaine Stypula, 60, fell just three hours into the Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run in Silverton, according to a press release from the San Juan County Sheriff's Office. Authorities and Silverton Medical Rescue found Stypula on the 'steep, rugged, remote' Little Giant Trail near Gold Lake, which is part of the grueling course, Silverton Medical Rescue said. The Farmington Hills, Mich., resident was so far off the beaten path that authorities could only drive within a quarter mile of her location before trekking the rest on foot, they added. 3 Elaine Stypula, 60, died during the Hardrock Endurance Race in Colorado on Friday.
