Randi Bromka Young can pinpoint the moment her running career started: She woke up one day when she was 31 and ran as far as she could from her house. She only traveled a mile that day, but from there, the transition to running ultramarathons was "rather quick," in Young's words. Her first race was the famed Boulder Bolder 10K and then some short summer races and a short triathlon. By 1987, she had run six marathons; in July of that year, Young ran her first ultramarathon, the Vail Valley 50 Mile; and then, she won the Leadville 100 in a time of 24:12. She'd return to that legendary course three more times, finishing the race in 1988, 1989, and 1990. She aldo represented the United States at the World 24 Hour Championships in 1990 and won the TAC 24-Hour Championship in 1992.
