This Week In Running: January 8, 2024
Briefly

It happened again, another new men's fastest known time on the 66-mile, 42-peak fell running route. This time Finlay Wild (U.K.) completed a solo and unsupported winter round in 15:35. It was the fastest winter round ever, made more challenging by the fact that he started at 4 p.m. and ran from dusk to dawn.
Believe it or not, Catalina Island's where the bison roam. A small herd of bison are on the island off the coast of southern California, and 50-mile and 50k runners might've seen them on the island traverse. The race marked its 43rd year. Haley Hasty won the 50-mile race in 7:33 alongside men's leader Michael Ruf in 6:30, and Laura Beresford and Sam Condon won the 50k in 4:24 and 4:00. Condon was only four seconds in front of second-place Matt Powers. Full results.
