The coach, Sedicum, appears to sign up for some pretty hard ultras. Oil Creek and Eastern States are pretty tough courses. Good on him.

This would be the perfect movie for Disney to inspire the next generation of Hobby Joggers into being American record holders. The current crop just don't believe in themselves enough. Once Jill Greathouse runs 50:00ish for 10mi in her debut on a hilly course I see a new wave a hobby joggers doing it. Say goodbye you elites with your fancy HS, College, and Pro PR's. The Greathouse's and Rossi's are going to take over from here.
It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;
but who does actually strive to do the deeds;
who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Everyone knows that anything is possible if you just work hard enough and film a training montage with an inspirational soundtrack. Maybe that's already in the making?

To the person registering as "Jill Greathouse",
You can post inspirational quotes from Teddy Roosevelt all day long. How about posting some of your Strava/Garmin/Any GPS data.
Is anyone from the TriState area ready to run somewhere between 50min and [likely] 70min for 10 miles and will shadow this "rising star" for the race???
Wejo/Rojo - fund this person's entry fee?
We learned from the infamous Alex V that GPS data does not indicate anything and can be easily fudged.

It's a Rossi reference.

I live half an hour from the race, and if this ruckus keeps up for another two weeks, I'm going to sign up on my own for this exact reason, just to run with her and make sure no Rossi-ing goes on.

Is a slow 100 miler a better performance than a fast 10 miler?
Maybe it's 10K!
I live ~50 minutes away and run like 30 minutes a week these days lol I can try to struggle through 6 minute pace for a few miles... (if it ever actually goes that fast)
It's only 16 miles from the Lehigh Valley Marathon to the starting line of the Upper Buckie 10 mile world class attempt.
Maybe the 2 races can work out a deal to share PR.
Run the race of your life.
Go for it, Jill!!!! We know you can do it!!!!!!!
Matthew 19:26 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.â€
Where is the link to the race? I'm going to sign up.
video footage of runners needed, this is a course cutting waiting to happen.
This sort've makes sense now. I drive to run near this area on Saturdays and there's been this chick just flying, but I mean, like Henry Rono head back wild arms, fartleking around the park. I always thought she was pretty quick and was impressed she'd still be going after my 90 min long runs, but I guarantee it has to be her because it's such a small town/area.
Gonna be fun.
I don't bandit. Where's the link?
