    I was following this on my night shift and he was 8th at 04:00 this morning. Unfortunately I think you are correct. It looks like he has retired.

    Alan, looks like you are right, no sign of Mark after Ouray.

    No doubt he will surface on his blog in due course to report.

    Shame.

    Brief blog entry now from Mark http://markhartell.blogspot.com/ Sad news Mark, "end of an era"(?).

    Good to see Jennifer Roach finished.

    First lady Diana Finkel, as already mentioned, finished third overall, a very long way ahead of 2nd lady. Amazing. And overall winner's time was 24:38?

    Yes, an anti-clockwise record.

    Last year Kyle Skaggs broke the course record with an amazing 23 hours 23 minutes.

    His follow-up looks interesting though

    I've been in email contact with Mark who seems utterly relaxed about his decision to do no more 100s.

    He has lots of outdoor projects on the go and I'm sure the blog will keep us up to date.

    He is hoping to make the BG Club Dinner on 10 October to do his bit as President.

    His other book "Beyond the Marathon" about the Grand Slam of Trail Ultrarunning is also worth obtaining.

    Thanks for posting about these.

    I've been in touch with Bob and the books are on their way over to me.

    Bob sounds like a great guy from our email chats.

    I'll maybe report further on the books once I've read them.
