White Rock 50k results
For some people, running a marathon is a life long accomplishment. For others it is an unimagineable distance to run. But for ultra runners, the marathon is simply a training run, something they might do once or twice on a weekend as they prepare for an upcoming event. Marathoners usually look for flat and fast courses. Ultra runners seek out muddy, hilly courses with lots of obstacles like darkness and creeks with running water. The White Rock 50k was an opportunity for some Conway non-ultra runners to get a taste of this experience.
Dustin Speer ran his second 50k at White Rock this weekend and reported this on Facebook: “50K done in 5:16. Ouch… Those hills hurt.” Curt Amenta did 25k (first half) and said it was the toughest run he had ever done. Stan Ferguson “smoked” the course and won the race.
