It is balmy in Peoria, compared to Bear. It really doesn’t matter what the course is like…nothing can be as cold as the Bear 100 last September. It is balmy in Peoria, compared to Bear.

He said no way with the mud, the 150 mile runners start first and the course will be hammered the time the 100 milers start. Sounds cold there but Karl said it is a real nice course~Good Luck Meltzer BAHAHAHAHA Wasatchspeedgoat Race update before dark and the AM I just talked to Karl, he ran the 10 mile loop in 1:40 which would be a 16:40 finish.

Although he may have left to fly out there by now? I live about 2-1/2 to 3 hours north of McNaughton. Right now its about 35 degrees, wet, drizzly out here. I don't think its supposed to be very warm this weekend. I used to feel about the Adidas Marathon Trainer the way you guys feel about the Montrail Vitesse. I used them for 6 years; then when they discontinued them, I bought a handful of pairs. Now (and don't throw me off), I use the Inov-8 line. I don't have the Utah-sized rocks; just a lot of dirt, mud, and tree roots. Akamoogy - McNaughton (the 100) starts this Saturday at 6 AM - you can wish Karl luck.

Monday I'd finally broken down and taken the screws out of my really old Vitesse and had them in the rotation so I'd save my newest pair for CPTR 50 and Leadville if needed. FYI, the really old pair (circa 2003) were screwed and did a 25 mile, 6k worth of climbing ice and rock run last week, no problems other than the screws coming through on some of the really nasty sections. Keep up the great work. B Thanks for the info.
