Keeping time at a 100 miler

When the Wasatchspeedgoats run a 100 mile trail race, they race the clock to win down time. Always try to keep your d/t under 60 minutes for 100 miler. WSG Training tip: keep moving and never sit down at an aid station. Bahaha!! Two scrapes!

    Aid stations make all of the difference. My first year at the Wasatch my time in aid stations totaled 3 hours; no naps. I reached the Homestead 90 seconds after the cutoff; a painful way to DNF. The next year I cut my d/t by more than half. I finished more than 8 hours faster than the previous year.

    Yeah, make sure your gear is set too, last year I spent way too much time changing clothing in/out…
