Half way through the second day. The first update, unfortunately, needs to be that Liz Bauer has ended her 6-day early with a bum ankle as she doesn’t want to do any more damage. Hope you heal quickly, Liz! That means there are some 6-day changes. Annabel Hepworth is back in the lead with 118 miles accumulated in 34 hours. Yolanda Holder has walked herself to 103 miles and will soon surpass Liz Bauer to officially take 2nd position. Edda Bauer is keeping the spread at 5 miles and is at 98 miles.

2017/2018 Across The Years – Day 1
When to catch a few minutes of shut-eye and when to give your feet a few moments off the ground becomes one of the biggest strategies during 144 hours.

We’ve only just begun. There’s a mix of excitement, determination and patience among the competitors. All 6-day participants started at 9am this morning (December 28th) but there is also a contingent of 24, 48 and 72 hour runners. Chavet Breslin leads the 24-hour women, about two laps behind the overall. With her December 9th 16:46:21 2nd place finish at Daytona 100 she knows she’s asking a lot of herself but she also knows the course and has been 3rd and 1st in the last two editions of the 24-hour.

Saturday, September 16th would be the sixth annual racing of the Mogollon Monster in Pine, Arizona and my nerves were through the roof.
