Ultramarathon Daily News | Mon, Nov 28

Justin Mock runs down all the trail and ultramarathon results from this past week including Cape Town, Dipsea, and more.

Jean Pommier has run the Dipsea trail hundreds of times...here’s his report from last week’s Quad Dipsea.

This guy is into trail running and nudism and wants to combine the two. (Flap, flap, ouch.) And of course Bob Hearn gets a mention.

There’s athletic performance, and there’s enjoying your fu*king life. Both of these pursuits are worthwhile.

-A reasonable approach to alcohol and athletic performance.

And a reasonable discussion on cannabis and trail running.

It’s cyber Monday so you’re not getting much done anyways, right? Take two hours and watch this video shot by Jeff Peletier about UTMB. Trust me, it’s fantastic. While the official race footage shows so much of the front of the pack, this shows everything else.

USATF MUT 2022 ROYs. Did ya get that?

Ultrarunning Magazine: Crucial conversations around menopause and endurance running.

An interesting Twitter discussion on what would happen if pro MUT runners boycotted prestige races until adequate prize money was offered.

Unfortunately, it’s time for a friendly reminder about the comments section. Civil discourse is encouraged and comments criticizing my positions and opinions are welcome, but ad hominems including me or involving/invoking my kids will get it deleted. I had to delete some seriously egregious comments over the weekend and it really bummed me out. Thanks.
