I've reached out to a few people, but so far no word from Alexandera. Hopefully, it's just dead SPOT batteries. I'll assume no news is good news for now.
Meanwhile, Chase knocked out the Canyon portage over night!! She's been killing it out there, so stoked to see her dot at Stateline soon!! Joe D. should be dropping in today and Brad Kee seems to be on a mission, pulling an all-nighter last night. Perhaps setting himself up for a good rest tonight, then huge final push to the end??

Considering the reported trail conditions, the Moving Average Speeds of everyone seem fast.
In 2016 Neil B's was ~6.2 mph. Nate was 7.0 mph and the 800'ers still moving at present are 6.2 mph or faster

Interesting. That's impressive considering the removal of so many paved miles - Tonto Basin, North Rim in particular. I'll be curious to see if a 7 day finish in the 750 is on par with a 9 day finish on the 800. That's great news re: Alexandera, I just saw her tracker update as well. |

In 2016 Neil B
Moving Time 5:02 Stopped Time 1:12 Moving Average Speed 6.2 Route Distance per Day 114.5 Route average speed 4.8
In 2021 Nate G
Moving Time 4:18:29 Stopped Time 4:16 Moving Average Speed 7.0 Route Distance per Day 84.3 Route average speed 3.5
Looks like the classic tortoise vs the hare

Good job Chase, Way to push to 2am. That is some serious wilderness out there on the N. Rim. Impressive run. Joe is closing in on Jacob Lake which will be a great fuel up spot for him, Good job Joe. And good job Brad making it past the N. Rim.
You all deserve mucho positive energy. Way to go!!!!!!!

Hopefully our three riders at the South Rim can snag some camping permits for tonight. Meanwhile, down south, Jesse Reyna has un-scratched. He lost his tracker on day 1 and we were able to get him another in Kelvin. He's singlespeeding the 800. He had gone off route to have his knee looked at, probably cost him a couple days, but he's still at it.

Trying to get confirmation on that. I'd assume so... |

Yes, all three finished last night around 11p.  That leaves one lone 800 rider out on route, Jesse is making his way up to Mt. Peeley. |
