On this Episode, we recap the “Black Mountain Monster Ultra” with Brian Beal and Michael Roberson . Brian and, Michael’s wife Mary, were 1st and 2nd Overall! We also recap the “Spartan Montana Ultra” with Tim Mazur. Due to weather they had to make the race into a 4 lap Ultra instead of the traditional 2 laps.
