MK-II of this is already in the pipes. ...Agree PC. MK-II of this is already in the pipes. This is a great starting point but an imperfect solution to a very complicated problem. I'm looking for the best runner in NZ and not the best NZ runner otherwise I will need to factor in international races just to include those elites overseas. If Frosty or Jono were to race in NZ they'd certainly feature in the results MK-II. I'd need to explore the Dan Jones problem a little. He raced a lot 4 years ago then very sporadically after so I'm not sure he has been captured by this. One of the requirements for qualification in the list is to have run a certain number of races. I think this is fair enough, to call yourself a trail runner I don't think having done 1 trail race is qualification enough.

He turns up for a few weeks a year (in the school holidays from Kentucky) wins everything by a Kenyan-margin and disappears back to the States again. <br /><br />And then there's Anna Frost. Is she the best female trail ultra. runner in the world right now? <br /><br />Matt, after Tarawera and Northburn are done, lets BLUP the shit out of this. <br /><br />Cheers, PCPaul Charterishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831196294867106529noreply@blogger.com
