One last hurrah before the end of the year. Runners, get ready for a fun and festive holiday 10K trail races at Squaxin Park in Olympia, WA on December 14.

This year’s Hardrock 100 has an incredible number of pro runners lining up at the top of the entry list. iRunFar has the overview:

Both the men’s and women’s fields are stacked, with most of the focus on the men’s side being on the two favorites, Kilian Jornet and François D’Haene, both previous champions. In the women’s field, despite a DNF last year, Courtney Dauwalter stands ready to take on two-time defending champ Sabrina Stanley. That said, there is plenty more talent in both fields, and as we all know, 100 miles is a long way and anything can happen!

Say what you will about the antics around the race and the insane discrepancy between the number of male and female runners, Hardrock 100 attracts some of the top ultra athletes from around the world for a very exclusive jog around the high alpine Rocky Mountains.

I am bad at stock market speculation, because I decide too much with my heart, and with that said, here are my picks for the win:

  • Maggie Guterl
  • Kilian Jornet
