The 2013 ENDURrun came to a conclusion Sunday with it’s dramatic finish: the marathon stage. After running 117.8 KM over six stages the previous week, participants are challenged with the full marathon (42.2 KM) on an honest course to earn the title of One Tough Runner.
Results
In the ENDURrun Ultimate men’s event, Stefan Gudmundson went into the final stage with a narrow seven minute lead, and ran a personal-best marathon of 3:03:33 to win the event in a total time of 11:43:17. In the women’s event, Catherine Kelly defended her eleven minute lead to win the event in a total time of 14:14:27. Amazing performances!
The ENDURrun Sport division consists of the final three stages, for 77.8 KM. Costas Farassoglou (7:12:30) and Debbie Gray (8:51:00) came away as champions. Debbie won by a mere 37 seconds!
