The Wasatch 100 dished out some serious heat but it didn’t effect Meltzer or Roes as those two both broke the old course record. Rose crossed the finish line in 18:30 and Meltzer in 19:12, amazing times for the two top dogs of the day. On the woman’s side Besty Nye and Mandy Hosford both finished under the Cheetah time of 24 hours with course records, well done ladies! 2009 Wasatch 100 results.

Great job Wasatch Speed Goats ! We had five runners in the field, Dave Hunt age 50 finished his 6th Cheetah, amazing! Other goats were my favorite rival Tom Remekes, Jim Skaggs and super Nannie Jodie Chase who traveled from Phoenix to post a Cougar “under 30 hour” finish. I was out to run a PB at Wasatch while the splits were right on until the melt down after Millcreek, nothing like a little nap in the woods to get it back together. Once I left Pole Line Pass I smoked the last 20 miles to finish in a PB of 27:19..Time to recover and get ready for the Inaugural Oil City 100.
A great goat showing all-around.
Way to hammer and get the PB – nap and all… Rest up for the next one!
You gotta stop taking naps man! Great run, 100s are now becoming easy for you, even with a minor meltdown. Congrats on a great run!
Great job! I really enjoyed the sections of that course that you showed me on my vacation out there. After doing some exploring on my own, I saw that although we were nearly on the highest elevation part – there are some severe ups and downs with tricky footing. Really solid time – you should be proud. Karl’s right, these are getting routine for you!
No such thing as an easy 100, they all hurt…….baha
Hey, Scott. Great job. Really enjoyed getting to chat with you and Tom in the sun-drenched run to Lamb’s. Cheers. — Hank
Likewise, looks like you had a great second half! Cheers
Nice run Scott…great splits and what is that thing all over your face?
I was way happier than that when I was at PB (not)
Looks like I spilled some water on my shorts,…ha
