There’s always a winner. This year, the course wins. #bm100

Welcome to the chaos! Watch the documentaries on YouTube, read the books, follow the wormholes, and prepare to wait for next years chaos because Barkley ends all too soon

Less than 3 hours for that to happen. I don’t see it happening unless they clear in the next hour or so.

Could be 3, no telling what Sebastian will do

Sounds normal to me in #bm100 season lol. But I know that race course weather is always more wild than the weather apps show!

It’s terrifyingly delightful. I have been rewatching the documentaries.

32 hours is the record, I believe, for failing. They went 2 miles.

Yes! It’s part of the “fun” to watch it all evolve, knowing that nature will do its own thing too and you never know what frozen head will do

Nah, they could still do a fun run! 2 more hours until that cutoff.

How many are still on loop 1?

Yes! I’ve been a Barkley follower for a lot of years, so I love the chaos of the race winning, and knowing so much of the lore from years of following. And while I cheered last year for Jasmin and the others, I also cheered for the course knowing this year was going to be wild #bm100

Laz is diabolical.

Uhhhh this is exactly what to expect of Barkley? The course is designed to win, not the runners. Every time someone wins, or multiple someone’s, the next year is brutal.

Nope! We are in ninja mode this year and tbh I kind of love it. Can’t wait for the after race intel!

Yeah, that’s the old Utah flag!

Now the curious want to know- did they complete the loop, and just miss the time limit? Or did they get lost in the woods….

Loop 1 finishes. Clearly I’m a little loopy and should sleep…

9/39… better odds than I expected onto loop 2 given the late finish times for loop 2.

This doesn’t shock me, I knew Laz and the course would have their revenge after last year’s epic finish.

Yeah I won’t need to be checking at 2 am for if loops are finished.

Thank you, have a good sleep and I’ll stalk the sheet in the morning!

Still nowhere near the “record” of 2 miles in 32 hours.

That’s what I thought, because the conch had to blow by 11 for it to be an am start today.

Wasn’t start at 11:37 am? Conch at 10:37 am?

Keith is THE SOURCE for Barkley! I trust him over anyone else.

I texted my mom in all caps yelling CONCH. It felt appropriate

Thank you! I love any Barkley stuff, I’m not crazy enough to race but crazy enough to stalk!

Working on finishing up some wips too- or at least getting them to the “send to longarm” stage. 2/3 assembled as of last night.
