Quick Recap from the 2016 Manitou's Revenge 54 Mile Ultra

Race day is when you plan for all of your hard work and preparation to come together. It takes a lot of courage and commitment to even get to the starting line of any ultra endurance event. Some days you have the race of your life, while others don’t go quite as planned. This weekend was a perfect example of that at the extremely challenging Manitou's Revenge Ultramarathon & Relay, one of the toughest trail races anywhere in the world! MPF RNR Athlete Carlo Agostinetto crossed the line in 1st place! Check out some of the race footage below from his day in the rugged Catskill Mountains of New York! 

Huge congratulations to Kehr Davis and Carlo Agostinetto for their stellar performances on this years Manitou’s Revenge!!  They battled warm conditions but fortunately had dry trails and low humidity as Kehr ran to victory in 13:47:14 and Carlo in 11:16:40.  Congrats to the rest of the runners as well!  Full results below:
