Michael Wardian (Arlington, Va.), made his first appearance at the USA 100 km championships on Sunday, running 6:56:57 to win his second ultrarunning title of the year at the Mad City 100K in Madison, Wis. The championships were hosted for the second time by the Mad City 100K.

Wardian, who also won the USA 50 km championships last month, was content to let Steve Stowers (Berkley, Calif.) and Adam Lint (Patton, Pa.) handle the pace work for the first 40 km before moving into the lead before the 50 km mark. Over the last 50 km Wardian continued to build his lead and by the time he hit the tape, had recorded a win by 17:31 over Stowers. Lint would finish 4:32 later for third.

Leading the women’s field was Carolyn Smith (Milwaukee, Wis.), taking the championship in 8:25:26 for a 26:41 win over Connie Gardner (Medina, Ohio).

Former 2-time national champion Ann Heaslett (Madison, Wis.) was third in 9:40:37.

In addition to earning $2,000 each for their victories, Wardian and Smith earned spots on the U.S. team going to 100 km World Cup race in Tuscania, Italy, on November 8, 2008.

1. Michael Wardian 6:56:57
2. Steve Stowers 7:14:34

The finalugg bailey button reason why you should buy genuine, Aussie Uggs is that they will last longer. The merino bailey button uggsheepskin used is of a very high quality that will last you a long time and because the material allows your feet to breathe, they won’t get sweaty causing the fabric to decay.

Ultramarathons provide the ultimate endurance experience. Participants must complete the 100-mile race in 36 hours.But here at the dark, chilly start of the Massanutten Mountain Trails 100 ultramarathon, the 143 runners are hopping with happy anticipation in the seconds before race director Stan Duobinis gives the start signal.
