Episode 044: Belgium Backyard Champs, Javelina Jundred, No Business, and an FKT Cutter

Ultrarunning News Network

Tune in to hear about the conclusion of the Backyard World Championships! We also discuss the big party...errr...race at Javelina Jundred where David Roche put on a clinic. We dive into results from No Business 100, Tussey Mountainback 50, Truth or Consequences 50K, and Weekend at Burney 24 and 12 hour race. We let everyone know they can nominate people for the FKT of the year (link below). An ultrarunner thought he set the FKT on the Grand Teton route and it was his life goal for the last 4 years but there is a huge issue with his attempt. We pay homage to Julia "Hurricane" Hawkins who passed away recently at the age of 108, she took up running as a sprinter at the age of 100 and was pretty fast! Finally we talk about a new and impressive record that was set over the weekend.
