Carrabassett BackCountry Challenge 100K MTB race
Congrats to Jon Rowe on his 3rd Place podium finish in the Masters 50+ in the Carrabassett BackCountry Challenge 100K at Sugarloaf Maine this past weekend. As one of the categories in the National Ultra Endurance "Marathon" series the 50+ is heavily competed, a field of 23 with 5 DNFs, being won by 2020 series winner Greg Golet making the trip out from CA. Tough course in a new format twice around a more singletrack-focused 50K lap, despite the favorable weather conditions it proved to be more challenging with race times roughly a half-hour longer than previous years...way to go Jon!
