Early release this week as Farley has an out of town race coming up this weekend. We start off today with results from Tor Des Geants, a beast of a race in Italy. Then we discuss Run Rabbit Run which was the 100 mile main event of the weekend in the U.S. We also talk about RUT 50K, a sky race in Big Sky, Montana. Then we talk about Remi Bonnet setting the Mt. Tam Hill Climb FKT right here in the Bay Area (Mill Valley). That FKT has been held by Jim Walmsley since 2017. Remi was in town for the Headlands 27K which is part of the Golden Trail World Series. We go over the results and speedy dual at the finish of the Headlands 27K. We also dive into this crazy unsupported 100 mile race that takes place in Plain, Washington. In addition, we look at an article from Run247 that describes some of the training that Jasmin Paris did leading up to her Barkley finish earlier this year. Finally, we give a status update for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian who are still out there kicking ass on the Appalachian Trail. All eyes are on Tara as she is closing in on the last few hundred miles with the overall FKT in sight. Go Tara!!

This week we talk about the classic late summer point to point 100 milers that took place over the weekend. Results from Wasatch Front 100, Pine to Palm 100, Mogollon Monster 100, and Superior Trail 100. Crazy that all these juggernauts take place in the same weekend! We also discuss Hurricane 100K, Wy’east Wonder 50 mile and 50K, and YUTC 50K. Tor Des Geants is going on and John Kelly was having a great race until he wasn’t. Also, there is a new men’s 6 day record! Matthieu Bonne of Belgium broke a record that was set in 2005 by the multi day legend Yiannis Kouros. We end the show with AT updates for Tara Dower and Mike Wardian. They are in the same area! I (Farley) had a bit of technical difficulty during this recording so please excuse that.

We start tonight’s show off with race results and some commentary about Crazy Mountain 100, Burning River 100, Minnesota Voyager 50, Standhope 100, Never Summer 100K, Resurrection Pass 100, and Tushars Mountain Runs.

Mike Wardian and Tara Dower are both doing the AT in August for charity. Tara is going for the FKT but we are not sure yet what direction she will be going. Mike is going North to South but planning on 50 days. We discuss the co-ed FKT summiting all 58 of Colorado’s 14,000 peaks (14ers). There is a funny video on reddit of a random flock of sheep following a runner. We end with some of Snoop Dog’s commentary on Badminton from the Olympics.

We kick today’s episode off by finishing up our Western States discussion from last week.

Today's show focuses mostly on what's unfolded at Cocodona 250 over the last few days. Including the exciting finish in the men's race which was not long before we recorded. First place woman should be finishing later tonight. It's truly been a fun race to follow and the livestream action has been great. We go over some race results from UR Mags Old School races series which saw action at Miwok 100K and Strolling Jim 40 miler. Give a shout out to a friend who finished her first 50K at Pine Trail Run in AZ. We thought we didn't have a LazCon update but magically one appeared while we were recording! We discuss Patagonia's virtual RUFA event which is a Challenge on Strava that anyone can sign up for and I will link below. In addition, we started a UNN club on Strava that everyone should join (if you want to)...link below. We talk about which Hardrock qualifier got phased out and which one is being brought on board. EmKay Sullivan turned down her Canyons Golden Ticket and finally Bo Pelander becomes the first person over the age of 80 to do something that is super inspiring.
