feel like hayden hawks was the favorite everywhere except itt. off to a strong start. think his plan is to win this and then move to europe like jim and try to tackle the more competitive euro scene. clearly he has the speed from his road success.
i agree about jared tho. he is still younger than pretty much anyone competitive in the US ultra scene, but hasnt seemed to piece together a great run since his runner up to jim at WS a few years back.

I feel like Hayden opposite of Jared in a sense where he always has very good performances but never any big wins. Hope today can turn that around for him, big fan

How is the anorexic girl with all the pelvic fractures doing? How about the short haired thespian looking one that’s always crying? How about the 20 yr old Andrew Miller from a few years ago?
A Strava employee is currently on the live stream right now, she said trail sports are outpacing pavement 3 to 1. Maybe more traditional endurance sports could take some notes from the trail side as far as growing the sport and engaging the causal fan.

So, one Strava employee made you make this broad statement about the endurance sports in general?
How many needles does this top dude Pederman have in his arms in between aid? Dude comes outta no where and basically completes the impossible on a course that never allows it.

Trail running and gravel cycling in total amount of races and participants have increased dramatically over the last few years while traditional forms of running and cycling have stagnated. Doesn't take a genius to realize.
Trail harkens back to simpler times and everyone appreciates stories full of grit, adventure, and perseverance. Road, track, and triathlon have become canned competition. A genetically blessed lab experiment is given the best equipment in the world to compete in a controlled environment. Very seldom are there surprises as most races play out according to form. The athletes are dull. The winners are more or less pre-ordained. We all suspect that PEDs are involved.
Trail feels more blue collar and the athletes have relatable personalities. It seems more accessible to beginners and their doesn’t seem to be a sneering purest culture. I have volunteered at a couple of trail ultras and the overall vibe is far superior to road racing and track. The better runners were quite chill and no one was snarking on hobby joggers, fatties, and old farts. The only thing close to a cheating controversy seems to be debate over the use of trekking poles.
First time since 1986 a man debuting in a hundred miler winning Western States. It couldn't have happened to a more relatable and approachable young man.

Time to wake up. "Trail feels more blue collar"? Check the irunfar.com and some of the key ultra runners insta profiles. For example, Tim Tollefson (Mammoth Lakes, CA), is just one of many examples of the white, affluent, trust fund kid crowd being in the ultra scene for quite a while. You need $$$, even more now than two years ago, to live nearby or to travel to train in the mountains. Most of them don't hold a job. They run, travel, post a lot online and have fun. Rich fun. Many are impressed, not me.
So how fast is Adam Peterman on the track? He ran in college, right? Does anyone know? For what school? And what's his marathon PR?
He ran for Colorado and has a PB of 3:47 for 1500, 8:14 for 3000 and 8:45 for the steeple. He was injury plague throughout college so he didn't focus on the roads/marathons post college.
