Let’s not forget that Karl Meltzer, who also has an amazing ultra resume, took a crack at it last year. He pulled the plug somewhere around Virginia (southbound) after experiencing weather and physical issues once he realized that he wasn’t going to make the record. He joined Jurek for part of his run this year and is planning to take another crack at it next year. So, he has recent experience of what it takes and is actively scouting the course for his next attempt.
