the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run,
the Vermont 100 Mile Endurance Run,
the Leadville Trail 100 Mile Run and
the Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run all in the same year.

Congrats to Baby Sasquatch at the Lakeview District Meet last week.
He ran in 4 events and advanced to the Regional Meet in all 4 races.
His first event was the 4x800 on Thursday, and his team took 3rd overall.
Baby Sasquatch was the anchor for the relay team and was in 5th place when he got the baton.
He was able to move up into 3rd place to secure a spot for the regional meet for him and his teammates.
(top 4 spots in each race advance)
Then he also ran the 800 and 4x400 pre-lims on Thursday and qualified for finals on Saturday.
Saturday his first event was the 1600.
The race ended up being a battle between Drake Sulzer from Woodridge and Baby Sasquatch.
With 150 to go Baby Sasquatch moved up on the outside on the far turn and then took the lead coming off the turn heading down the front stretch for the finish line.
With 40 meters to go Sulzer surged back, but Baby Sasquatch was able to get the lead back in the final meters of the race to win by 0.03 of a second in 4:28.41 to Sulzer's 4:28.44.
