I think Eric Clifton has had a long successful career in the 100 mile category. Sure he strikes out often, but when he connects; it’s a home run! Karl is an amazing runner in the 100 mile trail category, hands down. He just needs truly race at his potential over at Ultra Tour de Mont Blanc!! He’s well seasoned with the Euro poles now so he’ll be in good company over there!

Karl may be a Male Stick, but he’s faster than I’ll ever be!!
Nice work Karl!
Actually I was poking fun with him at the finish for looking like a Euro tweeker Ferengi using those sticks! He said that they really helped.
… so maybe another catagory would be a good idea??

Perhaps the “Euro Category” is a better name for it Mr. Purist!

Male Sticks category. Could it be the future?

Nice work! A truely impressive performance!
Perhaps a slight correction needed though:
The new course record for that direction in the ‘Male Sticks’ (ski poles used) catagory. I do think it is time we start differentiating the catagories.

Simply amazing run by Karl! It’s even more impressive considering he just set a new CR at Bighorn a few weeks ago. Well done Karl!
