"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."”
Marathon & Beyond published the list a couple of months ago.
They may have it available on line.
Cascade Crest made the list, at a higher / harder ranking than WS.

PS: Based on my Bear and Leadville times, RealEndurance predicted a 38.7 hour Hardrock. I ran 38:40:50.
Some of those are triathlons, so why are they in the list?
They rank all kinds of events based on time.. Gary (Wang) is a triathlete (ultra length events) and an ultrarunner. Just take the ones out you don't want. The first column...pick 100m and get rid of the rest. I didn't care enough to do that...
Thanks guys. This is good stuff. I think there was another one though... like an image from the magazine of the list.
Trent?

...and then there is Barkley.
It is now up to nine finishers since 1986.

I like this although not comprehensive....

Found it!
Yeah... that's the same list I posted, percentages, sample size, etc. Must be from the same source.
Ah yes, so it is. Thank you!
