Ultrarunning News Network – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Exciting episode today, tune in to hear some great conversations! Our only listener in Rhode Island, Cole Crosby, also happens to be a really cool guy and a super fast runner. We have him on the show to talk about what he's been up to in the world of ultrarunning and what his future plans are. We go over race results from Pinhoti 100 which we somehow missed talking about on the last episode. Then we discuss the incredible thing that happened at Tunnel Hill this year, Courtney Olsen set a women's 50 mile world record!!! We go over the results from the Puerto Vallarta by UTMB 100 mile and 100K, U.S. runners did pretty well there! We cover Fuzzy Fandango 50K which has turned into a fall classic of sorts at the Mohican State Forest, the gem of Ohio trail running. A new self supported and overall FKT was set on the AZ Trail. Some sort of record was set by two Americans who did a sub 24 hour 100 miler in Antarctica. We end the show talking about Aravaipa taking over the Endurance Race Series in Colorado and all the great things that Jamil and the crew have done for ultrarunning in the U.S.

This week we start off by going over results from all the main UTMB ultra races. Then we talk about what appears to be a miserable hot and humid 46 miler on a paved trail in Florida. Costume chick was out there representing! We talk about Stine Rex setting a new women's 6 day record. We discuss Kilian Jornet's new adventure he recently completed in the Alps. Anton Krupicka set a new FKT on the "LA Freeway" route, it's not in California and it's not paved. Will Peterson smashed the FKT on the Long Trail in Vermont. Tara Dower is over half way on her AT FKT attempt. Mike Wardian is also over half way. He even did the "1/2 gallon" ice cream challenge at the half way point. We end the show talking about a race that we skipped over when doing the results. The Temptation Ultras in central IL.

We start this episode talking about Jeff Browning's (a.k.a. Bronco Billy) impressive FKT on the Colorado Trail's West to East, Collegiate West route. Then we dive into race results from Oregon Cascades, Twisted Branch, Matterhorn Ultraks, Habanero Hundred, and Midwest States 100. Johnny breaks down the best pie in New York's Finger Lakes region where Twisted Branch takes place.

Today we start off talking about David Roche’s Leadville 100 course record that he set on Saturday, breaking a record that has stood since 2005.  Also it was David’s debut 100 miler which is a bit surprising since he has been around the ultrarunning world for so long.  We also go over race results from Leadville, Tamalpa Headlands 50K, Squamish 50/50K, and the Marquette Trail 50/50K.  Then we discuss Jim Walmsley’s return to UTMB and talk about Harvey Lewis and what he recently accomplished.  We go into a discussion on which race is the toughest between Western States 100, Badwater 135, and Bigfoot 200.  Then we go over the FKT updates and through runs for Tara Dower, Mike Wardian, and Bronco Billy (Jeff Browning).  We end the show looking at some of the video footage of Leadville posted by Matt Choi on his Instagram account.

We start tonight’s show off with race results and some commentary about Crazy Mountain 100, Burning River 100, Minnesota Voyager 50, Standhope 100, Never Summer 100K, Resurrection Pass 100, and Tushars Mountain Runs.  We talk about Harvey Lewis’s Badwater double, well, not a true double according to Marshall Ulrich but we still think it’s pretty badass.  Mike Wardian and Tara Dower are both doing the AT in August for charity.  Tara is going for the FKT but we are not sure yet what direction she will be going.  Mike is going North to South but planning on 50 days.  We discuss the co-ed FKT summiting all 58 of Colorado’s 14,000 peaks (14ers).  There is a funny video on reddit of a random flock of sheep following a runner.  We end with some of Snoop Dog’s commentary on Badminton from the Olympics.
