Good run for an old guy at HR – Congrats. Re HR and pacers, I could not agree more. HR is supposed to be a postgraduate run, so I think having pacers is a contradiction in terms. Besides, if there are no pacers, maybe the FS and BLM would allow 200-250 runners on the course. As a five-timer, it is relatively easy for me to get in. But for runners trying to get in with hundreds in the lottery, getting five finishes in the future is going to be very tough. Get rid of the pacers, and add more runners if the federal permits will allow it.

Good luck on your future runs, “Old” Man,
Geezer Bud Philllips

Adam Wilcox is going to run well…sub 30 for sure.
Teach ‘em all a lesson, Karl!
Hoping for Krissy to get it done…

Overall/men: Karl Meltzer
Women: Diana Finkel

I just have a feeling this is Karl’s year. Also, Karl, you are not slow! Some of your recent 100-mile times show that!

Good luck to you all

Never been to HR before, so excited to see what all the hubbub is about. Hope to reach Ouray to see the frontrunners go through. Good luck to Karl and everyone else. Have fun.

Are there bonus points if at least the pacer doesn’t use poles? :)
