At 8:46am we started our 11km warmup heading down towards Goose River. It was raining pretty good, and would continue to do so all day. Arriving at KM 0 (eastern side of Goose River) at around 10:30am we made some final adjustments, took some pictures, and started our 10+ hours journey to Big Salmon River at 10:43am. Along the route we would stop briefly to chat with hikers, take in some nutrition, and fill our water bottles in the rivers and streams. Just before 9pm we arrived at our final destination on the eastern (St. Martins) side of the suspension bridge at Big Salmon River. The trek took a total of 10 hours and 15 minutes. This time can most certainly be beaten, and we welcome any and all efforts! The mission was to set an official FKT, no matter what the pace, so that the running community can start getting after it. Your turn!
