Killer job on this FKT, Jess!

I'll be giving it my best as well this coming Saturday, June 22.

Hello!

Tomorrow, 10/10/2025, I am going to attempt the women's supported FKT on the Mickelson Trail. I plan to start in Deadwood at approximately 7:00 AM. Looking forward to a day and a half of running! 

Thank you! I did it! I struggled more than I thought I would (overnight and on day 2), but I really enjoyed it! The leaves were pretty, and I thought the scenery was nice.
