This was the 30th! Anniversary of this much loved early season ‘rust buster’ ultra in Bellingham, Washington. One of the ‘old school ultras’ as labeled by Ultrarunning Magazine the event saw yet another incredible sunny and warm race day.

There were a total of 585 finishers:

  • Men: 364 (62%)
  • Women: 218 (37%)
  • Non-binary: 3 (.5%)

Top 3 women:

  1. Claire DeVoe – 4:13:25
  2. Jade Belzberg – 4:14:58
  3. Priscilla Forgie – 4:15:36

Top 3 men:

  1. Francesco Puppi – 3:26:31
  2. Matt Daniels – 3:28:43
  3. Dylan Humberger – 3:39:41

Francesco ran a new official course record time (Adam Peterman ran a faster time in 2022 on an altered and shorter course).

Friend of Singletrack Thomas Reiss finished in 5:02:48 – congrats.

Back in 2017 I ran Chuckanut for its 25th anniversary in very different weather.
