The Montrail Ultra Cup qualifying season is over. Only thing left between the runners and the Cup is Western States 100. If you've finished 3 of the 6 qualifying races, and you will also be running Western States, you should register and enter your finish times. There's no reason not to. If you haven't run 3 qualifying races, but have finished at least one, you should register and enter your finish times. You'll receive a community prize contingent upon how many races you finish.Those competing for the Cup at Western States should remember that your final Series score is the sum of your finish places for all 4 races. The lower your overall score, the higher you will be ranked. And your Western States finish place will be divided by 2 in order to weight it more heavily.
Registration closes on May 15th. You must be registered and have entered your times by May 15th in order to be counted as a participant. As of this moment, based on registration, the people who have 3 qualifying races under their belt and will be also running Western, thus competing for the championship, are (in no apparent order):
Mark Lantz
Victor Ballesteros
Eric Grossman
Scott Dunlap
John Catts
Joseph D'Alessio
David Dean
David Rhodes
Kevin Hume
Mark Winkelman
Jeff Collins
Charley Jones
Suzie Lister
Lori Heinselman-Craig
There are others out there who have 3 qualifying races and will also be at Western, but they haven't signed up and entered their times yet. After May 15th, we will release the standings heading into Western States. Keep training hard, we'll see you at Squaw in June.
