Runners' Club Member Completes Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run
Just got this from the club snail mail:
Over the past Labor Day Weekend, Marty Fritzhand, a longtime member of the Runners' Club of Greater Cincinnati, completed the Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run in Utah. Marty was third in his age group and finished with a time of 34 hours, 51 minutes and 1 second. It was his 23rd 100 mile ultra, but more remarkable is that he is 66. The Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run stretches from Layton, Utah to Midway, Utah and covers some of the most beautiful scenery in Utah. There is a cumulative elevation gain of approximately 26,882 feet, as well as a cumulative loss of approximately 26,131 feet throughout the course. It is arguably the second toughest 100 mile race in the country.
