Huge episode tonight! A lot to talk about. Farley gives a run down of his experience running Mountain Lakes 100 over the weekend. We both are in awe of Tara Dower’s accomplishment setting the overall FKT on the Appalachian Trail, it’s truly impressive. We go over race results from Mountain Lakes 100. Then we talk about one of the icons of ultrarunning, Anton Krupicka, who came out of nowhere and took second at Grindstone 100. We go over the results of the other races at Grindstone. Also talk about the young gun Hans Troyer who ran Grindstone 100K and it was his first race since taking 10th at Black Canyon 100K, where he ended up in the hospital afterwards with rabdo. Unfortunately Grindstone didn’t go his way and he ended up with a DNF. We then talk about a possible shady maneuver the first place runner did to block the second place runner during a sprint to the finish at Mammoth Trail Fest 26K which was a Golden Trail World Series Event with major prize money on the line. We also go over the results from Mammoth Trail Fest races, the Barkley Fall Classic, the Cowboy 200, Pikes Peak Ascent and Pikes Peak (not quite) Marathon. Max King and Hayden Hawks both had some success at events overseas. We go over results from Dances with Dirt (Hell, MI), Flagstaff to Grand 100, IMTUF 100, and there is a new self-supported FKT on the Colorado Trail. Finally we end the show with the breaking news / controversy about Camille Herron and her husband + coach Conor Holt who got busted editing the wiki pages of other elite ultrarunnners to make them look less significant and editing her own page to seem more elite.

Early release this week as Farley has an out of town race coming up this weekend. We start off today with results from Tor Des Geants, a beast of a race in Italy. Then we discuss Run Rabbit Run which was the 100 mile main event of the weekend in the U.S. We also talk about RUT 50K, a sky race in Big Sky, Montana. Then we talk about Remi Bonnet setting the Mt. Tam Hill Climb FKT right here in the Bay Area (Mill Valley). That FKT has been held by Jim Walmsley since 2017. Remi was in town for the Headlands 27K which is part of the Golden Trail World Series. We go over the results and speedy dual at the finish of the Headlands 27K. We also dive into this crazy unsupported 100 mile race that takes place in Plain, Washington. In addition, we look at an article from Run247 that describes some of the training that Jasmin Paris did leading up to her Barkley finish earlier this year. Finally, we give a status update for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian who are still out there kicking ass on the Appalachian Trail. All eyes are on Tara as she is closing in on the last few hundred miles with the overall FKT in sight. Go Tara!!

This week we talk about the classic late summer point to point 100 milers that took place over the weekend. Results from Wasatch Front 100, Pine to Palm 100, Mogollon Monster 100, and Superior Trail 100. Crazy that all these juggernauts take place in the same weekend! We also discuss Hurricane 100K, Wy’east Wonder 50 mile and 50K, and YUTC 50K. Tor Des Geants is going on and John Kelly was having a great race until he wasn’t. Also, there is a new men’s 6 day record! Matthieu Bonne of Belgium broke a record that was set in 2005 by the multi day legend Yiannis Kouros. We end the show with AT updates for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian. They are in the same area! I (Farley) had a bit of technical difficulty during this recording so please excuse that.
