LT100 Run DreamChaser- Pat Cade
As a six-time finisher of the Leadville Trail 100 Run and 2025 4th- place overall finisher, Pat is no stranger to digging deep. But this year, he’s running for something bigger than a finish time.
Pat has spent the last 10 years living in Leadville, and as a track & field coach and teacher at Lake County High School, he's seen firsthand how much the Leadville Trail 100 Legacy Foundation scholarships impact local students and their futures. That’s what inspired him to step into the DreamChaser role.
“The kids mean a lot to me because they are the future of our community.”
On race day, Pat will not only start in last place, but he’ll also begin the race 2.5 hours behind the rest of the field, chasing down runners across 100 miles of Leadville’s toughest terrain. Supporters can pledge a dollar amount per runner passed or make a flat donation to support his effort and the future of Lake County students.
Every dollar raised helps open doors for local kids through scholarships, grants, and community support programs.

Pat started 2.5 hours after the field and spent the next 100 miles doing exactly what he set out to do: chase down runners and turn every pass into support for our Lake County community.
But the numbers only tell part of the story. Pat took on an enormous challenge for the students, families and organizations that make this community home, and so many of you rallied behind him every step of the way.
To everyone who pledged, donated, cheered, shared and believed in The DreamChaser program, thank you. You helped make Pat’s first year something truly special.
Pat, you showed us exactly what it means to DIG DEEP!!
What a race. What a community. What a DreamChaser.
