@Challengers, our fourth FLRC 100K Ultra Challenge completion for 2023 is a repeat—Pete Kresock has once again doubled for the year, upping his overall Ultra Challenge completion count to five.
This time, he changed up his strategy slightly, starting in the dawn light of 4:18 AM on Blueberry Patch before the long drive out to Lime Hollow. From there, he repeated his previous approach, working his way back west and finishing up with Black Diamond Park to Park in the dark. Last time, he started at Lime Hollow at about 8 PM, running through the night and finishing in the late morning.
His running time was 12:42:03, about 22 minutes slower than his previous effort, but he took a lot more rest between efforts, posting an elapsed time for 20:17:46, over 4 hours more than last time.
These Ultra Challenge miles also put Pete in the lead in Most Miles overall, with a 30-mile gap on Caitlin Loehr. Will Caitlin be able to respond with more mileage this weekend?
