Joe "Stringbean" McConaughy on John Muir Trail via Whitney Portal (CA)

Hey all! Supported FKT on the JMT on 9/20. Still waiting on last minute permits, but I have one for 9/21 if it comes to that.

Tracking can be found below. Hope to go after Francois' time but Antoine is also out on trail a day ahead so we will see what happens.

I have a great crew/pacer team (including Caro who set the unsupported female FKT this summer!) coming in at Kearsarge, Taboose, Bishop, VVR, Mammoth Pass, and Tuolumne. Can't wait for round 3 on a JMT FKT, this time NOBO and this time supported.

River Frome Walkway (UK)

Submitted by samwestcott on Tue, 09/22/2026 - 07:11am
Description

The river Frome is the second major river in Bristol running from Dyson Estate in the suburbs to the centre ending at the historic Bristol Harbourside.

 

Lined by history, quarries, bouldering spots and the progression from the beautiful countryside to Bristol’s bustling city centre, the net downhill route lends itself to a fast 34k of a mixture of technical footpaths, river and bridge crossings and fast paced road running into the centre. There are a few road crossing's and later  in the year, the flashy river catchment is likely to flooding.
