Good analysis. Some kind of journalistic closure was needed for Ourea.
Particularly notable was the "structure and progression" of UTMB events is attractive to international travelers/runners, while independent events have to create their own meaning.
I'm very glad I did Dragon's Back - these were unique events in the world - and glad I spoke with Shane.
Thoughtful reading as always. Thanks for the link to outside v outdoors article. Laid out like that there's a lot to both agree with and be worried about.
