25 lbs for 80 miles?! Leave it to ultrarunners to make an already difficult thing barely survivable.

❝I know this may sound strange, it’s an ultramarathon, you’re supposed to run…but this was 80 miles into a race carrying more than 25lbs on my back the entire time.

2,820 Minutes at the 2026 Conquer the Wall 47-Hour Rucksack Race.

Screenshot I spent this past weekend rucking and running in the Conquer the Wall Endurance Challenge in Williamson, West Virginia. I raced in 47 Hour Individual Ruck Division from 7PM Friday to 7PM…

Bugger, as they say down under, Margie had to stop due to an injury, on day 76. So we are down to Tim, who is still working, and the Wizard, who is pulling all his supplies in a trailer and have just entered a part of Oz where the next supermarket is in 1100km ...

Feck me, day 75, and Margie just did a backyard ultra while doing this ...

Used an LLM tool to pull my running data from intercals.icu and draw a graph to track my elevation training.

This information is super useful when preparing to the summer ultras.

I'm working on a video about inrevals.icu, specifically for #ultrarunning
I'm looking for comments, thoughts and any questions you might have that I could use in the upcoming video.

https://intervals.icu

I've been using intervals.icu quite some time already to support my training.

But I recently started to look much deeper into what it acutally offers for #ultrarunning. Oh wow! There'a a lot.

Just looking at the huge list of 3rd party apps that build on the system, you're spoiled!

Yet another example how having an Open API, with very dev-friendly policies makes your platform stronger!

Update: Apparently it resulted in the second longest distance today 🥈🤯 (out of 60ish finishers)

What a nice surprise. Also … if I knew that a runner was so close then I would have used the last 8 minutes a bit better 🤣 … I was literally just cozy jogging with all the others at the finish line 😆. I’m lucky that the other person (3rd) didn’t catch up (also I think perhaps that person too didn’t know he was so close 🙃)
