The Speedgoat 50K wasa huge success this year…..yah we had a few more dropouts, a few injuries, but in Speedgoat Country it’s a common scene. The Wasatch Mountains are relentless and Saturday was no exception. Find the results on the Speedgoat 50k page, just click on the link!
Nate McDowell and Anita Ortiz dominated the race and lead start to finish, right after the BAAAAHHHH starting gun.
I’m off to the AT tomorrow morning, 3 days of powerdriving…47 days of powerhiking to follow. Follow me online at whereskarl.com. The Backcountry crew will be handling the website from here. I won’t dissappear, butit’ll be erratic on my posting. Stay tuned for the Leadville and Wasatch odds. That one I won’t miss, even on the long green tunnel.
I’m off and thanks to all who follow my silly website. Wait till the real story comes out when it’s all over!

Great job putting on the race Karl, you and your crew of volunteers incredible. Definitely the toughest 50k I’ve ever done, thanks for organizing it.
Tear up the AT, you’ll do great.
Karl,
Great job on the Speedgoat 50K. I would call it 31 miles of relentless fun ! It certainly humbled me. Kudos to all of the great aid station workers. They went the extra mile to keep us all going. I took a lot of photo’s along the way if anyone wants to see them, let me know.
Good luck next week on your AT challenge.
Tony

Wow! your going to attack the AT and be the ultra bookie at the same time? You are a bad ass! I suppose your going to golf to?
Seriously, I’ll be surprised if you don’t break the record. Go get it!
Thanks for putting on such a great race. I enjoyed the big climbs. Good luck on the AT.
Good luck Karl. An awful lot of us will be following your progress.
Good luck Karl!
