As Duck is kickin ###, my boys doubled up on northern’s today at the same time. That will be a story when I get back. Had a fish dinner tonight that we caught today. Delicious.
No running. Had some beers.
Gonna run tomorrow morning. Get you some @SFBayDuck!

In honor of Duck I went and did a little under 8 miles of hiking - I can’t imagine doing another 92 more.
Down to 6 minutes with 20 miles to go. How awesome would a sprint finish be???He’s not going anywhere. My money is on him to pull it out.
Bitter just dropped a 9:30 pace over the last 4 miles compared to hammes 10:15. Gap is now 3 minutes with 16 to go.Down to 6 minutes with 20 miles to go. How awesome would a sprint finish be???He’s not going anywhere. My money is on him to pull it out.
Course is downhill for the last 30 miles
hmmm....great section for Duck but he lost a few spots.
Mile 55 at 14:42. Slipped 5 places. Pace increased to about 17. 7 minutes ahead of 30 hour pace so he held serve. Getting close to a 3 hour buffer on the broom wagon.
Basically he just crushed that section, as did those running with him. Pretty of targets on the horizon for him.

So awesome I can go to sleep with the latest update and then wake up and he is still going. So crazy!!
keep it up Duck!!
Mile 64 at 17:50. Gained 10 spots. He's now 11 min ahead of 30 hour pace which is a gain of 4 mins. 2:25 in front of the sweep.
Next section is 7.7 miles with a 2000 ft climb. This is where he starts crushing souls. He's budget for a 23 min/mi pace here

82 runners or 30% of the field has been eliminated. The 75 yo was broomed up at mile 49 missing the cutoff by 30 minutes. 6 in total were eliminated there, 2 others made the cut by one minute and said F this. Current DFL is long overdue at mile 55. Runner in front of him will be eliminated at mile 66. 2 runners made it to mile 66 at the cutoff with 5 others with only a 25 minute cushion.
And he's in at 20:51, up 4 spots to 118. He's 7 min ahead of 30 hr pace and 2:09 in front of the cutoff. The later number will continue to drop as he's budgeted more time in the later part of the race than the RD has with the cutoffs. Duck should be at the next station by 22:15, it's a 3.6 mile section. He's budgeted 21:40 for that section. That will leave him less than a mary away with 7 3/4 hours to break 30 hr and 9 3/4 hr to finish. The late would be a 23:24 pace and it's all downhill, meaning he's just about at the point that he could waddle the rest of the way and finish. Congrats on a great race this far Duck.

Two runners have been out on the section Duck just finished in 3 hours for about 6 hours. 85 runners now eliminated. Current DFL needs to run the next 8.6 miles at a 15:45 pace. He hasn't seen that pace since yesterday morning. Will take a Herculean effort to pull that off.
Well I had planned to do a 12 hour event today. The event didn't appear to fill in years past so I waited on registering. I went to register in early May and ended up waitlisted. I was about 40-50 down the list. I e-mailed the RD from my work address and asked about the odds of getting in and never heard anything. I checked the waitlist a couple of weeks ago and had only move up two spots so I made plans to work today. Turns out that I got an invite to enter into the race on Tuesday at the e-mail address that is attached to me at Ultrasignup. It's also the address where I have 19000 unopened emails from the last 6 months. I'm not to bummed because we are supposed to have t-storms all weekend with 4-5 inches of rain and flooding. I'm wondering if the RD saw the weather forecast and realizing he would have plenty of no shows, just invited most of the waitlist to score some more entry fees without the risk of exceeding the capacity limit?
And now a bunch of results for Todd's Cabin including guys who already finished the race were just posted.
But they are lagging by 1.5 hours so basically useless.

This is where his experience pays off ...he knows he can get it done because he’s done it before. BMF
FYI...When they post updates, the slower runners get posted first and then faster runners. A 24:20 went up in that last batch before Duck's 23:57 making it look like the wheels had come off. On the other hand, at the prior station they had him placed at 96th for a few minutes. Keep that in mind as you look for updates and give things a few minutes to flush through.
