Ridgeway Trail-Blaze: Tring to Ashbury Hill, 13th August 2011

Official Website
Israel Archuletta: 1st place, first person to reach "99km" in "19:31:36"

I started running Saturday morning (13 AUG) and hoped to get 30-40 miles as a good training run for the TransAlpine race over the Alps in 3 weeks. Ended up making it all the way to Ashbury Hill "99km" first one right? Went off the trail a few times, continued about 6-7 hours in the dark, my Garmin battery died at 67.1 miles before the last CP so I ended up doing 110km for the day. Had to stop around 3:30 or 4am after feet blistered to point of unable to go on, but legs and body wanted the Black Extreme so bad! Ashbury Hill is still only a red band? Did this solo, unsupported and without a crew. Furthest ever run in my life. Am still on a high!

Comments from the Trail Blaze people

  • "Special note to Israel who was so close to the black level checkpoint on The Ridgeway and who did a great video of his adventure (see his site). Full credit Israel and thanks for taking the time to share it with us, we're going to send a tech tee your way. Good luck in the Transalpine Race in couple of weeks will you be able to keep us updated?
  • "Today shall be known as "Red Thursday" as we congratulate Matthew Sims, Israel Archuletta, Malcolm Young, David Carr and Andrew Young. All reached the Severe level checkpoint on their respective trails and so of course earn themselves the red TB wristband! Great work guys, so Israel's pretty close to a black, anyone else fancy the challenge? Neil's getting lonely up there I tell you!
