"Live" from the 2017 Manitou's Revenge Ultramarathon & Relay!
I "Was Live" on Facebook from the 2017 Manitou's Revenge Ultramarathon & Relay at mile 34ish on Indian Head Mountain, Devils Path! There is very minimal reception in the Catskill Mountains but I found a couple of bars near the top of Indian Head Mountain at around mile 34ish and was able to go live. Thanks for the feedback from everyone that was letting me know about the quality and sound of the broadcast, which turned out surprisingly good.

This was a race for the ages! It was the 5th running of one of the more rugged 50 mile trail ultramarathons in the US. It was a very dark day, with hot, humid and wet conditions. Not the ideal situation for photographs but the perfect conditions for an epic adventure.
Here is 4 Minutes with Deborah Livingston at the 2017 Manitou's Revenge (2nd female, 14:41). She was using this race to help prepare her for the Hardrock 100 that she competed in this past weekend and finished in a time of 41:01!
Amy was attempting her 5th consecutive finish of the Manitou's Revenge Ultramarathon & Relay and become one of the only athletes to have successfully completed this epic adventure each year since the inaugural running in 2013. It was a fight to the end.
Within this post Elizabeth writes a little about what she has been up to, along with this year's 54 mile Manitou’s Revenge and the UTMA 165k from the Gaspesie National Park in Canada.
