Anton Krupicka, still, or again on top of his game with his post race Strava update:

I went to Grindstone with three goals: A) win, B) podium (so as to qualify for UTMB), C) finish (so as to get my first Hardrock lottery qualifier in a decade). I guess two out of three ain’t bad, but even if I had won, this was not a good race.

First on, congrats Anton! Secondly: How do the continues haters of UTMB feel about one of their heroes making such a pro-UTMB declaration? Thirdly: I’d love to know what inspired Anton to set his sights again on this goal. Back in February he was quoted saying the following:

“It’s all manufactured controversy. This is all just made up. So many people just want to have the magical experience of circumnavigating the mountain and doing it with others, because there’s this strong communal feeling when you’re doing it. And all the other shit? No one actually cares.”

That’s right Anton… all the other shit… no one cares.
