I wasn't properly capturing downtime; these better show how the race shook out; I'll probably write more later on my substack after the race wraps up #cocododa250

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

just a few more miles for Rachel, she should break 56 hrs #cocodona250

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

more bad maths with Megan in W3 #cocodona250

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

bad maths update #cocodona2025

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

@HetzelCole nonlinear, trying to account for both the 50+ hour fatigue and the pending mt. elden climb

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

playing around with coco projections, but I don't think I'm handling 200-mile fatigue and the mt. elden climb very well #Cocodona250

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

@crbishop I don't think he's running it this year

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

If I do anything for Barkley this year, it'll be posted to Substack or Bluesky

#utmb results with weather on a consistent scale, per the open-meteo API -- super impressive that the women's times trended downward despite higher temps; the men's did not, but perhaps this was also indicative of the decimated elites field (no disrespect to Vincent et all)

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

all temps should be on the same basis now (2024 still warm, but not as extreme of an outlier)

also pulling CCC data from Courmayeur, Italy and not Chamonix #utmb #ccc

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

@GuillermoMorea @runsingletrack each data point represents the entire range of recorded/estimated weather (min, average/mean, and max) of the day

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

fantastic job everyone participating at #UTMB, and also credit where credit is due, props to @runsingletrack Finn for successfully calling 2/3 of his women's field bold takes (2024 weather is probably still off)

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

Looks like it was really warm today? Or maybe my source of weather data was off #CCC #UTMB

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

similar charts, but for Friday's CCC (two in F, two in C)

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

#utmb updates with updated forecast; note
1) previous temperatures were from Fridays; I updated to Saturdays (since race starts Friday afternoon and mostly occurs on Saturday)
2) added Finn from
@runsingletrack's bold takes for the women's division https://t.co/mKf0Vhvhvx

@nick_ph7 I believe everyone is just getting faster; had Courtney not won Western States and Hardrock earlier in the season, I wouldn't be surprised if she would have set the course record last year as well

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

for funsies, plotted with celsius temps and started with 2018 as to ignore course modification during 2017's race #utmb

[John Sugden @JohnSug]

looks a bit busy, oh well #utmb (temperatures in freedom units; sorry everyone outside of USA)
