Good point, Clint.

This is the runner I was hoping to see in the Tahoe200 vying with Courtney...

I guess it means, in this day and age esp, you just can't have it all... a dozen or more races every month. (Like podcasts, lol!)

Not going for any kind of record but I'm planning on running the JMT (south to north) next year. Hoping to pull it off in 5 days.

Now that's an offer that can't be refused! I was going to go in a few days prior and stash grub at Glen Pass Lake. I'll hit you up as things get closer next year. Next cache' after that would be at Muir Trail Ranch, Reds Meadow then Tuolumne CG.

Awesome. Top finishers, both boys and girls, pretty impressive.

I've had the pleasure of working with Courtney--she volunteers helping build trails in our open space parks. She's the most unassuming champion one could ever meet. Yay, Courtney!!!!

Anthropologists now are increasingly saying we began walking upright because it allowed us to run game to exhaustion. Still being done that way in Ethiopia. If true, marathons were here a very long time ago,

From the Seattle Times.

Heather Anderson was the first woman to complete the Triple Crown of Hiking — the Pacific Crest Trail, the Appalachian Trail and the Continental Divide Trail — in a calendar year. We caught up with her in one of her rare off-trail moments.
