Event records

Female: Ginny Robbins, 27:47:37 (2023)

Ginny Robbins of Victor, Idaho cruised to a 28:19:59 finish in 2022. Then, a year later, she took first overall and beat her own course record in an insane time of 27:47:37.

The weather was amazing from start to finish. While temperatures creeped into the high 70s on Saturday afternoon, Ginny and her fellow runners didn’t have to deal with precipitation. Nighttime temperatures were in the low 30s.

The trail was tacky and overgrown in many places. A relatively wet spring stretched the annual “green up” well into the summer, giving ground-level plants more time to grow up. There were also far more stream crossings than prior years because seasonal springs had not yet dried up.

Male: Ross Ring-Jarvi, 26:15:35 (2022)

Despite a small mishap with his pacer (who happened to be his fiancé), Ross Ring-Jarvi arrived first in 2022 with a time of 26:15:35.

“Event” record instead of “course” record

Why “event” record instead of “course” record?  We prefer the former because race courses tend to undergo small changes from one year to the next. Credit to VHTRC for the “event record” concept.

The 2018 Hardrock 100 Runner’s Manual captures this concept nicely. The fact sheet, on page 66 of the PDF, shows the difference in course lengths over a three-year period: 100.3 miles (2003), 101.4 miles (2004), and 100.4 miles (2005). With a five-year average finish time of 39:20:17 across all runners, that extra mile in 2004 makes a difference — a 23:21 difference!
