Emma Stuart It's been just over a month since my Barkley adventure and I thought it was about time I gave a brief reflection on it. I've not posted before now for a number of reasons, including not really...

@taka-does-stuff.bsky.social - sorry for posting again, but I don't see Ed on the spreadsheet yet: Ed Thomas is this year's runner from South Dakota, he posted on fb about it.

Ed Thomas How does a heart ache from overwhelming joy and pain at the same time. How does a soul writhe in puddles of anguish on trails of discontent, yet bathe in the warmth of ethereal beauty and...

And glad to see JK did indeed tap himself out 😊

Before everyone's gone for a year or so: Anyone hear anything about Tomo this year? He's probably the one I'm rooting for most now to win this one day (well, and Damian). #bm100

Iain Bethune posted on FB that he finished loop one with all 16 pages, but over the time limit.

If you read the race reports, that's how some describe it. People don't want to slow others down and tell them to move on. Everyone knows nobody can afford to slow down for anybody for an extended period of time if they want to continue. I would guess all would help in an emergency of any sort.

If he started (Path Finder?), I hope he's still in as so far there was no mention of somebody tapping himself out...

If Path Finder was John Kelly, I hope he's the fourth one out? But he would have been named by now, wouldn't he?

Great podcast with Tim Landy on his first Barkley experience: www.britishultrarunningpodcast.com?p=366

#BM100

Tim Landy's time for the first loop was 11:34 (this podcast, about minute 54:50: www.britishultrarunningpodcast.com?p=366)

You have a "Kenny" on the spreadsheet with a question mark. Maybe you mean Ken Zemach? He commented on Laz's fb debrief:

Ah, I see, I misunderstood that, apologies!

Finally, Frozen Ed commented on Laz's fb debrief that he also participated in the race again this year :-)

And this is from Sébastian, he arrived at 10:25:

For the spreadsheet (thank you for all your work!): John and Maxime were the first to arrive from loop 1, as John mentions on his fb page.

To finish the Barkley Marathons is the second one about Karel Sabbe

It says the video is not available. Could this depend on region?
