Blue Marsh Lake Circumnavigation (PA)
Shaun Luther proposed the route:
Blue Marsh Lake is a man made lake just NW of Reading PA. It is very popular with trail runners due to the approximately 30 miles of marked trail that generally follows the shoreline around the lake. For many years local runners have debated what is the fastest way to get around the lake. This FKT attempt puts a stake in the ground for future (I’m sure) much faster attempts that may use alternate routes that still conform to the following guidelines.

Snowfield Peak (WA)
Snowfield Peak is an outstanding summit in the North Cascades about 5 miles ESE of Newhalem as the crow flies. Snowfield Peak's most distinctive feature is its broad Neve Glacier on the north and northwest flanks. This is one of the larger non-volcano-related glaciers in the Washington Cascades and measures roughly 750 acres in size.

El Camino de Costa Rica (Costa Rica)
The Camino de Costa Rica begins at the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica, either in the town of Parismina or in the community of Barra de Pacuare. After crossing the islands at either location, a ferry is needed to transit the canals to the dock at Goshen. From there, the trail continues on land across Costa Rica, approximately 160 miles, to the town of Quepos on the Pacific. One portion of the trail crosses through indigenous territory, where a local guide is required.
