Episode 38: Blake Wood - He's been there; done that!

Not only has he finished Hardrock 100 22 times (!), but he also holds an obscure record for road Marathons!  Listen to Blake's comments on the cancellation of this year's race, and recollections on a few remarkable FKT's, from the John Muir Trail, to being the first person to run cross country from Badwater to the top of Mt Whitney, AND the first person to finish the Nolans 14.

Description

The "Edelweißweg" is a 16 km long nature trail on the crest of the Franconian Jura. It leads on narrow paths through bright forest and across wide meadows, with stunning views at the Danube valley. In 1994 the trail was officially opened by the Section Donauwörth of the German Alpine Club DAV.

The entire trail is well marked with signs.
