Great story!! It is amazing how many people actually run that trail and it never even hits the books. I did it two years ago with a friend and he finished in 5 days. And he stayed with me for the first two days. Who knows what he would have done without me. Last year at 49 years old I did it solo in 7 fantastic days. Slept and ran like an indian!!
There seems to be a much faster JMT record out there, both supported and unsupported:

I’ll see if John will reply here. Truthfully, I have fallen out of the loop on this stuff since spending more time in Europe. I too would like to get the straight scoop on what has been going on in the last few years.
Thanks for commenting.
