  • notes the Male and Female Best Blood “winners”

^ notes the waves 2, 3 and 4 Winners!

@ covered more distance on the trail, but turned off his Strava on his way back from Sherman Gap to the finish, so this is distance covered to that point.

The two hashtagged runners finished the Big Loop, which was their goal for the day, so marking them as DNF is kind of harsh
