Just curious anyone on this board will participate this year run on Sept 1st. I often see runners practiced in both Ski huts trail and the Devil backbone trail. Right now I am conditioning for it. Below is the link to info:

that's just disgusting.
I would be thrilled with a sub 1:40 time.
Walk three miles an hour. and watch a tree that you pass right next to the trail. That's how fast this guy would pass you!
That guy would pass you like you were standing still.
And he would pass me like I was running in the opposite direction!
And for the lady, the record is even head-shaking:
Women time: 1:15:32 Carrie Garritson (Age 11) 1988
That girl's record is only 15 minute behind the man's record _________________ I went out to the country so i could examine the simple things in life. Henry Thoreau

The time is definitely impressive for an 11 year old, but women's running records are generally a lot closer to men's than 24%! For example, the women's marathon record is only 8.8% slower than the men's.
Comment added later: The women's record for the Pikes Peak Marathon is 30% slower than the men's, so large disparities are not unheard-of.

I wonder if greater disparities are more common at altitude. I've heard that men (and I have absolutely nothing to back this assertion up) generally handle altitude slightly better than women. _________________ Hiking? Aw, gee, do I have to?

I'm thinking it's because Men were the hunters and are used to running around up in the mountains. Well it makes sense to me!
