Ian Sharman’s second stage of the Grand Slam. Geez, I didn’t realize he’d just paced at Badwater 4 days before VT100!

Six myths about hiking/running in the heat.

I didn’t realize there was an ultra in every state. This guy’s going to run one in each.

Did you see the results of our poll question yesterday. I’m surprised more people don’t like out and backs.  I like point to point and do well at them, but the lazy person in me sees logistical nightmares having to drop cars, use shuttles, etc…
