Episode 65: FKT Of the Year - Overview of Nominees with Peter Bakwin

630 FKTs this year (and more coming in every day) ... what's new and cool?  

"More women, and more women going solo on technical routes"

There were no big efforts this year on the big routes, like the AT, PCT, R2R2R, JMT ... the existing times are too fast!

"The low-hanging fruit has been plucked"

Who will be the FKTOY winners?  What do YOU think?
