Curious if you handicap your own race as well? :) Good luck this weekend and, of course, with preparations with the AT. Hey Karl,

He was close-ish to Devon and my runner as far as Bill's so he made up a lot of time over very little distance. Say hi to Linda for us. Actually Matt Lavine pulled off 4th in the VT 100.

AJW, Glen Redpath, local fave Jack Pilla, and Boston'er Kevin Sullivan all battling for the top spot through 70. A medical check mishap cost Glen some time at 70, and ultimately AJW and Kevin pulled out the top 2 spots. Jack and Glen were the next two to cross the line. On the women's side, Devon took the lead early and never looked back, winning in 18:31. Michelle and Diana were never in contention (Michelle DNFed, and Diana came through at 19:51, third woman, I think) - Kelly Cronin took 2nd, 19 minutes behind Devon, though considering the 2 mile detour we took after Camp 10 Bear, it became a closer race than before the 25 minute 'extra mileage' route... As an aside, Devon was strong through most of the race, and was still pushing - and hammering the flats and downs in the last 30 miles I was running with her... unbelievable talent.

Did some folk cut the course or what? sub-12 hours for VT100 seems fishy. Did anyone look at the Vermont 100 results? Did some folk cut the course or what? sub-12 hours for VT100 seems fishy.
