She passed close to 50 dudes (including Sage) in the last third of the race to finish 17th overall.

You had a typo in her time. She ran 5:58:53.
Kazami’s WR buys him 3rd. Pretty competitive...

South Africans thought he was full of sh1t when he said something like “the hills in Japan are just the same as the hills in South Africa.” But you can assume he will be back next year.
Damn, Gerda Steyn. I certainly didn’t expect this from her but wow. Just wow.

Of course Japan has hills like in South Africa. But of course it is always easier to win in your own country where you might even run the course a couple of times.
And Gerda Steyn was amazing crushing that course record.
Any news what happened to Camille Herron?

Has Sage been chicked in an ultra before?
I predicted this 2 weeks ago Sage would get beaten by Gerda. She can go on to be the greatest she has the engine to run low 2:20's in the marathon I for one hope she gives the marathon a proper go.

Issue with her hamstring again. That’s what made her drop at Lake Sonoma as well. Not looking great for western states coming up but hopefully she can get it healed by then.

It looks like here stellar ultra career is over before it even got started.
Maybe it's time to change the Okie meat diet to a more plant based one. At least Sage Canaday got 21th.
Camille didn't even finish.
Let's hope she resigns from the 24 hour National Team as well. If you can't keep running for 6 hours how can you do 24?
Sage goes from 15th in 2015 to 21st in 2019. Also can't break 2:20 anymore, getting injured ad sick all the time. But at least he "feels great" on a "near-vegan" diet!
sage is just getting older and doesnt want to accept that his best days are likely behind him.
I think he should run a few smaller events for fun to get some confidence back and then plan carefully. He has a huge social presence, which likely wont go away with a little time to change into something new.
I wasn't really around when he was killing it but he's like RIGHT THERE usually, but hasnt had that extra oomph to win events.
I dont think it has anything to do with the plants, it's lifetime mileage.
For every one race Camille finishes (although usually a major one or sets some sort of record), she DNF’s at least 3-4. Not sure what this says: does she race too much? Is she overly cautious and drops out when she knows she won’t do well? I don’t know if I know any other ultra runner that DNFs as much as her. Hoping she can pull it around for western states, but that course is going to be tough on her too.
Sage needs to take a page from TheRunner (formerly known as Vegan Runner), and leave veganism. Brandon is killing it on the parkruns lately. Only a matter of time until he’s sponsored.
Come on sage, you know you want a juicy steak to go with ur Avery IPA ?
