The fast spring ITTs continue!! Kurt sets off tomorrow at 7:30a.  You'll notice he'll get going from border monument 103. Why? Beginning in the fall, the 300 will be starting at the border with the 800 at 7a. This puts the 300 back at 300 miles, not 279 or whatever. Everyone gets to ride 6 miles of AZT before reaching Parker Canyon Lake. Timesplits will now match up between the 300 & 800. Riders can actually meet everyone. Riders getting dropped off in the morning won't get dusted out after the ride begins as the drive in uses a different road than the route. Plus, it's a cool place to start!! Any other spring ITTs are welcome to start at either location due to short notice. Track will be updated shortly and a few waypoints will be added to both. |

Track history isn't showing up for me... I think it's because TL doesn't have him as officially starting until 9:50? |

Took KR about 2 hours flat to reach PCL. Flyin'!! Scott thinks Kurt listed his start time as 9:50a as an estimate on when he'd reach PCL, looks like he arrived a few minutes early!!

Bryan is about to wrap up an impressive ride in what should be well under 2.5 days barring something crazy. Katie is making her way down towards the mighty Colorado... She just keeps pecking away at the miles. Super cool! And Kurt is Kurt. Hopefully his ankle holds strong and the heat doesn't get to him too bad out there... Will be fun to watch.

The good times just keep rolling Small group in this room these days, feels like I'm watching a hockey game with a bunch of buddies, good times!  Bryan is having an awesome ride he'll be under 2d 10h for sure, maybe under 2d9h. Nice Work Bryan! Those 800 riders are tough. Jeremy closing in on the finish of his unforgettable journey. Awesome work! Katie approaching the river. Hang tough on the climb out! Go Kurt Go! |

After an early head start by AK Chewbacca, Kurt caught him and appeared to pass him briefly - but it looks like AK pulled ahead - hard to tell for sure, but they are very close at the moment. I'm sure both are ready for someone to push the sun behind Mt Wrightson  I should note - this isn't the first time they have been this close in a race, though this one is slightly warmer than the one I am aware of. Fun stuff!! |

I think he might be done based on something he posted on an Instagram story  |

Yeah... AK has a heck of a ride happening given the heat today. Will be interesting to see if the lack of the sun beating down on him allows him to pick up the pace a bit over the evening hours |

Also, looks like Katie is bedding down at one of the two spots available to do so while in the big ditch - cottonwood campground. Can't wait to watch that push unfold tomorrow. Go Katie!
