    Jackson athlete and Olympian Anna Gibson won the women's division at the Pikes Peak Ascent. It was her first time competing in the high-altitude event.

    Jackson local and Olympic athlete Anna Gibson won the women’s Pikes Peak Ascent in Colorado on Saturday, finishing the grueling mountain race in 2 hours and 37 minutes. The Teton Village resident is coming off a busy year that included competing in the Winter Olympics for ski mountaineering and racing the Leadville 100 mountain bike event. She beat her nearest competitor by over three minutes while filming the run for a new project on her YouTube channel.
