This was Beast of Big Creek 2026!
Watch the recap video of the return of skyrunning to the USA and North America's only stop on the Skyrunner World Series.
We’re now 27 hrs and change into Cocodona 250 and after the first night where the top runners have reached, or are close to reaching the distance halfway point we finally have some development that makes spectating interesting. Sadly the various communication tools available (Instagram, Tracker, Livestream) still make it next to impossible to figure out what place any of the leaders currently hold. The most technology supported event oftentimes feels just one step removed from the purposely obscured Barkley Marathons. I’ll be spending some time this morning digging through the various tools trying to make sense of it all and will update here – stay tuned.
