My first 50 miler back in November took me 12.5 hours. Hardly Krudmeister worthy 🙁
Easy on yourself Tim, Krudmeister only covered 41.5 miles per day 😉
26hours for me at last year’s The North Face 100. I had fractured my metatarsal 12 weeks out from the race and was agonising whether to start or not. Took 8 weeks before I could start running again, which was then 4 weeks out from the race. In the end, decided to front up with the goal of finishing. And I did 🙂
Don’t feel bad Tim! Mine took me nearly 13…but there was a “bonus” 5 miles tacked on!
I hauled a tower of power from Estes Park to Grand Lake and back through Rocky Mountain National Park. Took 5 days and covered over 60 miles. One thing a tower of power will haul that Krud’s fanny pack wouldn’t. Beer!!!!
