White River 50 on tap this weekend……
Here’s my picks. It’s off the cuff and only done in a few minutes cuz’ I’m off to dig a ditch and do trailwork for the Wasatch 100.
1. Anton looked good on the treadmill at the OR show, he’s had 6 weeks of healthy running and is probably hungry to bust one out. 2. Wardian will run fast and this course is good for him, it’s not too technical 3. Koerner can put in his bid for runner of the year if he wins. 4. Scott Jurek………he’s due to run a fast one. 5. Greg Crowther. Not sure on his fitness level, but likely he’ll be in this to win. Anton will try and burn him off early. 6. Phil Kochik….fast if he doesn’t blow up. 7. Jeff Browning. He’s the mystery man, we ran this past weekend, slowly, but I think he’s ready to run around 7 hours. 8. Brian Morrison. Another mystery man, but he’s got the speed to hang with the boys.The womens race is all Kami Semick, and it’s hers to lose. Prudence L’Heuruex is the only challenger, but is no match for Kami.
Enjoy the show, I”m gonna go dig a ditch!
