Range, which she has done dozens of times before.

Although the Class 2 peaks in the Sawatch Range did give Ton a fair amount of con dence, her lack of sleep made her continue to question if the chasing after the record was worth the risks.

“I went into this project leaving er-performing schools in the district. Malmberg said he and other leaders applied this summer for some grant funding to try to pay for the work to roll out the model districtwide.

“ ere’s a model that pretends race and class and poverty have no impact on education,” Malmberg said. “We are trying to do a di erent model, a model that elevates the voice of the community, that responds to the needs of that community.”

Malmberg, along with district and community leaders, believe the state’s performance ratings ignore the impact that the high concentration of poverty and other social and environmental challenges have on the ability for students in Adams 14 to be able to learn or demonstrate learning on a standardized test. ey’re interested in having the school district address some of those challenges rst and believe that over time, that may lead to some academic improvements.

“We really feel like this is the answer: investing in the community. But it’s not a quick x.” the sleep element out,” Ton said. “ e rst three days, I moved really fast through the San Juan peaks and I only got an hour and a half of sleep those rst three days. It catches up with you fast.”

Chalkbeat is a nonpro t news site covering educational change in public schools.

In severe sleep deprivation and swirling summer storms, Ton made a rm shift from chasing after her personal time goal of 12 to 13 days, to just nishing the attempt. She ultimately persevered and was able to set the rst ever summer 14ers women’s self-supported fastest-known time record with a time of 14 days, 10 hours. Ton nished the record on Capitol Peak in Pitkin County on July 30, with her friends and family coming out to support her in completing the 365-mile, 159,356 vertical feet, trek across the Colorado High Country.

“I was really happy to nish on Capitol,” Ton said. “It was super meaningful to me personally, because I remember when I climbed all the 14ers for the rst time, I was looking at pictures of the nice edge on Capitol and thought, ‘No way I would ever do that.’ Now, it is cool to re ect back on my progress. I am not a super emotional person, but I did shed a few tears.”

Since claiming the record, Ton has taken a few hours to recover, but has already ventured out the door to do some easy climbs in Boulder and the surrounding area. She doesn’t know if she will ever reattempt the women’s summer 14ers record, but she does have several ideas for her next big feat of endurance.

“I had been contemplating going after the women’s self-supported record for the Colorado Trail late September, early fall time, prior to starting (the 14ers record),” Ton said. “I am going to see how recovery goes and how my body is holding up, but I always have a long list of mountain adventures I want to do.” is Summit Daily story via e Associated Press’ Storyshare, of which Colorado Community Media is a member.
