Ultra-running is a family sport for us and we want a logo to represent us as a team through the years. Our five children are ages 6 to 1 years old now- four boys and one girl. We live in Nebraska but like to race in the mountains. These events are typically 24 hours or longer through day, night, sun, rain, snow, whatever. The family element is the most important part for us, working as a team and raising our children to have fun doing hard things. You could say this logo is to represent our family and that mission- and we happen to run ultra races. We like to share "ultra-culture" with people who don't get to experience such things otherwise. We post on social media using #familyfirst #dohardthings #noonecaresyourunultras 

I am very open on design. One layout I can envision is like the bowling pins in the example image with silhouettes of a runner in the middle flanked by my wife and children on either side from the torso up. I like the compass bezel around the outside to symbolize adventure. My mother-in-law helps with most races and we have various other supporters I'd like to represent somehow without getting too busy. Maybe a sun/moon/stars, point on a compass bezel, or something to that effect.

Fantastic design! Very responsive to requests and has great talent for turning a vision into a logo.
