"Charlie Lawrence, already the 50-mile world record holder, arrived to the track targeting a sub-6-hour 100-kilometer finish. That would've been a new 100k world record, too. Lawrence missed those marks but came away with a new American record. Among record-eligible courses, it is the fourth-fastest time for the distance ever. Lawrence finished in 6:07:10. That's only 95 seconds back of Aleksandr Sorokin's (Lithuania) 6:05:35 world record. Jim Walmsley's former American record of 6:09:26 had stood since 2021."
"The U.S. Showshoe Championships went first on a 5k track. Only 16 seconds separated the first three men. Eliot Soderholm pulled away from Andrew Allen and Erik Barkhaus over the second half to win in 19:18. Allen and Barkhaus followed in 19:31 and 19:34. Jackie Hering ruled the women's race in 22:41, and Laurel Moyer and Olivia Dietzel were second and third in 25:02 and 25:51."
