The last runners were Jared Campbell and Luke Nelson and they completed the third loop in a time of 39h04m. THE THIRD LOOP MARKED THE END OF BARKLEY MARATHONS 2021. Only two runners kept going looking for the race equestrian…. The same fate suffered Jamil Coury, who completed the second loop in 27h04 and was therefore out of the race as well. Unfortunately, the cut to move forward towards the third round was marked 26h40 so they could not move on. The three ladys, Maggie, Cournety and Liz completed the second loop in 26h52m. After the first 20 hours of fighting, only 10 runners remained in line. But there was still much to do: Chris Hanlon, Pavel Paloncý, Scott Martin, Wes Thurman and Niklay Nachev. First runners such as Frank Gonzalez, Tano Isola, Andy Pearson, Ian Harris, Harold Zundel and Hiram Rogers set a DNF.Īt that time, there were only eleven runners left in the process of the second loop. In fact, throughout the second loop the platoon was reduced to almost nothing.
Many of the runners were about to throw the towel already. The temperature kept dropping, the rain kept falling and the fog was still very persistant.
THE SECOND LOOP LEAVES JARED CAMPBELL AND LUKE NELSON ALONE IN THE RACE.Īgain Jared and Luke were leading after completing the second loop. In the end, only 16 runners managed to overcome the first cut and faced the second loop of the race. But would equally affect three ultrarunners like them? By then we knew that no man had completed the race with that speed from the starting line.
As soon as they left, the three girls completed the first loop in a time of 10:44m. They took some time to recover and leave at 10h40m of the race. Jared Campbell and Luke Nelson completed the initial loop after 10h21m. Still, the fog was a faithful companion in the departure of the small platoon grouped in the classic starline, next to the park fence. It sought a little clearing in the rain, which would then fall again. As is tradition, the race started an hour later at 3.04AM, even in the middle of the night. THE FIRST LOOPĪfter heavy rains in the previous hours, the official departure notice was at 2.04AM. Still, women like Maggie Guteri, Liz Cantyhane and Courtney Dauwalter, along with men like Pavel Paloncý (Spine Race winner), Jamil Coury, Jared Campbell or Luke Nelson augured to a high standard. The 2021 Barkley Marathon departed with a good cast of USA runners, as international runners had no easy place in an edition conditioned even by COVID19.
