I haven’t been paying attention to David Roche’s #wser training, but saw iRunFar had an interview as part of this year’s coverage. Is he actually expected to be a contender?
Mark HepburnHoly shit, and after nearly 140km Jim Walmsley and Rob Farvard (I had to google him! But I'm not very up to date at the moment) are still swapping the lead and averaging 5:20min/km. Times like this I do wish there was a live camera feed!
I'm late with this, but it's Western States 100 mile day! (Not top of my bucket list, but the OG miler and always brilliant racing). Apart from the live standings https://www.ultralive.net/ws100#tracking/overview, irunfar are embedding their twitter coverage so you don't need a twitter account yourself: https://www.irunfar.com/2024-western-states-100-live-coverage

And these eight elite ultrarunners have never run it as fast as one woman ran it yesterday.

Part of the fun of following a niche / newish sport like #ultrarunning is we're still no-where near the limits, and you get to see record-breaking all the time. Courtney Dauwalter just took 1 hour and 20 minutes off a super-tough women's record at #WS100, and by whatever standards you look at it (even hers) that is nutballs-amazing.
EricMEaganToday is one of the days where twitter takes the cake the Western States Endurance Run is happening, and all the news is over there. #ws100 #wser #trailrunning
