Wolfe repeats as National 50 Mile Trail Champion
Mike Wolfe repeats as “National 50 Mile Trail Champion“
WITHOUT music in his ears, Mike Wolfe took home the prestigious title winning easily with a 25 minute margin slipping under 7 hours. Nikki Kimball also ran a stellar race breaking the previous record again running 7:39. Scott McCoubrey’s leadership at this event proves it to be one of the best 50 mile races in the US, too bad we can’t tune out anymore! We all know it is not his decision. Congrats to all who finished this course, sometimes it’s too easy to just stop and smell the flowers out there. -baaahhhh. 3 scrapes!
Check out one of the best 100 mile races in the West at the Bear 100. The race, unlike most, is not full yet! Why? the low-key atmosphere and time of year might have someting to do with it. The fall colors are in full display and is a course everyone should see. A little easier than Wasatch, but even more beautiful. September 28th is the date this year.
For a last minute 50K, the El Vacquero Loco, (Spanish for ” Crazy Cowboy”) takes place in Star Valley Wyoming on August 11th! Never been there? It’s one of those places you may never leave. Baaaaahhhhh!

I am quite intrigued with the shirts Mike Wolfe always wears. Are those just regular cotton shirts? Guess those front pockets would be handy for gels. I almost walked up and asked him about them at Bighorn.

Mike says they wick moisture just like the 60 dollar shirts we wear, he gets them for 2 bucks at the local thrift store. He should be sponsored by Goodwill! -Wahsatchspeedgoat
