The Montrail Ultra Cup, arguably the most competitive ultra series out there, announced that the prize purses will be doubled for the 2010-11 season along with some new races and rule changes. Very nice! Good news for Glen Redpath and Meghan Arbogast, who picked up the wins for 2009-2010.


The highlights:
  • Prize purse doubled to $16,000, with $5k to the winner
  • New 50-miler added in Colorado
  • Same point structure as last year, with an additional 15 point bonus for race winners
  • The first "slide down" option for Western States entries; if 1st or 2nd place finishers already have a Western States entry, then the 3rd place finisher will get a chance (it stops sliding down at 3rd, unfortunately)
You can read more about it on the Montrail blog.

Looks like the early results for the Leadville 100 are also posted. Colorado's Timmy Parr (17:27:23) and Leadville local Lynette Clemons (20:58:01) ran to victory, with top 10 performances from Garret Graubins, Andy Jones-Wilkins, and Bryon Powell. Anton Krupicka's DNF is a good read too; I love that he so graciously shares his successes and defeats.
