This is, hands down, the most important thing I've ever written. For all those who have come before me in speaking about this, thank you. You have given me strength and hope. ameliabooneracing.com/blog/u…

After multiple failed attempts, the conch was blown at 10:37. The 2025 Barkley Marathons begins in one hour. #BM100.

Replying to @XcelEnergyCO
•With more than 150,000 customers without power due to this weather event, this restoration process will take time and will extend into Monday, April 8 and possibly longer for some customers.

The Barkley #BM100 would not exist without Frozen Head State Park, and this is the month we are able to show our appreciation to and for the park. If you are so inclined, you may contribute to the park at tnstateparks.com/about/speci…

It’s getting easier every year to find info on Barkley as it progresses (people posting pics, spreadsheets, updates from crew), but can we all agree @keithdunn is the heart and soul of our experience as fans? Thank you Keith! ❤️#bm100

Another take: I think having multiple finishers out there as well as having multiple people who have gone 3 or 4 loops also sets Barkley up for this scenario. Having a strong contingent of veterans on a good weather year? We are seeing the results 🤯 #BM100
Sebastien Raichon began loop five, three minutes before the cutoff. For the first time ever, seven runners are on loop five at the #BM100.

What is wild about this is thinking about 2021 when the race ended at 40 hours because all runners had been tapped out. #bm100

Back in 2018 I seriously considered buying a house in Petros as a home for Wayward Barkers 😂 #BM100
Harald Zundel dropped after getting lost on loop two and ending up knocking on someone’s door looking for help. #BM100

Having run both (poorly), my theory is that you are either a Barkley person or a Bigs person. There are very few that can and will excel at both. (And most, like me, are terrible at either 😂) #BM100
I was just talking to a co-worker and I was like "they're totally different races. Both weird nonsense, but DIFFERENT weird nonsense" LMAO

Though, you do have to have patience for seemingly arbitrary bullshit in both races (said in the most loving way - I love that part 🤣)

You know you have really overdone a thing when no fewer than 100 people have sent you articles about the death of the Pop-Tarts creator.
