Good job amigo ! ;D
best.
oscar.
This is gonna be awesome!
Thanks for posting in Spanish too. Awesome! Looking forward to it.
A Friday night race!! Can't wait to kick back with a case of beer!
Hi folks
I'm going to get in early. *Please* – if someone has a stellar race and blows the rest of the field away, can we *please* refrain from wondering out loud if there are drug cheats in the sport. Let's just enjoy the race online this time!
Let's assume they're all clean. Apart from dirt, dust, and a thick coating of dried sweat-salt. Yum! Tastes great!
Cheers!
Agree completely. Thank you.
+10. Agree!
Just heard Tony K's out w/ the flu. Bummer!
Gutted for Tony. But still so intrigued to see how KJ does with 6 days of running, Sage does in his 1st sky race, and at least 3 other story lines with about 10 guys go could win on a perfect day.
Meanwhile the FKT on the Grand Canyon gets slaughtered by an inhuman amount…
I can't keep track of it all.
Dean G, fill us in on the Grand Canyon FKT. What went down?
Did Rob Krar just kill it? He blew past me at TransRockies late in Stage 1, super-fit, especially after his recent 50M.
vamos argentina!
#Anton – Run Zegama!!! Stick around, train with Kilian and then run Zegama. It would be a shame to return to the States without having raced! Do it! (NB – Make it happen)
@DeanG What was Krar's time? Do you have a link?
