Barkley is trembling.
First time in its 36 year history, four runners are on the 5th & final loop:
⛰️ John KELLY 🇺🇸 1st out @ 46:02:55.
⛰️ Aurelian SANCHEZ 🇫🇷 2nd out @ 46:07:50
⛰️ Karel SABBE 🇧🇪 3rd out @ 46:59:20
⛰️ Damian HALL 🇬🇧 4th out @ 47:49:03.
📷 Howie Stern #BM100
For the first time in the history of the #BM100, 4 runners are on loop five. laz is concerned this will cause people not to apply next year, as they will perceive the course to be too easy.
