Each year we have brand new ultra runners sign up for ITHOTN 100k with no previous Ultrasignup history. Some have never ran over 13 miles. I'm always in awe of their grit.

Here are the newbies who have finished the 100k:
2022
Jim Ellis (went on to finish Zombie Undead Ultra Trail Party 100 mile in 2023 and he asked me to help pace him)
**Jim is also the only newbie to earn the Double Down and is my honorary trail son (he completed the 100k in 2022 and 2023)

2023
Jack Lee (went on to finish Zombie Undead Ultra Trail Party 100 in 2023)

2024
Phillip McGalughn

2025
Blake Roberson (went on to finish No Business 100 in 2025)
Britley Goad
Sebastian Giraldo

This year, our NEWBIES are:
Porter Darroch
Evan Veal
Caleb Floyd
Josh Floyd

Who will have enough grit to finish? I hope all of them!!!
It's one of my favorite things about being an RD is to watch new ultra runners attempt (and hopefully finish) great distances like this. I am here to help encourage you during the race. DO NOT QUIT!!!

Now let's encourage everyone to reach beyond where they think they can go in any distance.....

ITHOTN only has 93 spots left. We've got more 100k runners than 50k runners signed up. 💪🔥

100k, 50k, 25k, 10k....there is a distance for everyone.

Worried about cutoffs? The 10k, 25k and 50k are very very VERY loose cutoffs. Why? because I'll be out there until noon the next day. (hint hint...you have 18 hours).

The 100k does have some strict cutoffs. The first cutoff is that you have to start your last loop by 8am on Sunday. If you are not out on the fourth loop by 8am, you will not be able to start the that loop. The last cutoff is that you must be finished by 18 hours. Do you have it in you?

So go sign up.

HAPPY MONDAY!!!!
Officially in the YELLOW! 106 spots left. That may sound like a lot but last year on this date we had 141 spots left. I predict an earlier sell out than last year.

Do you have what it takes to complete the 100k? We have 27 currently signed up and 4 of those are coming back for their second year!

Not ready for the 100k? The 50k is just as gritty but a lot less hurt. The 25k is the perfect one to not hate yourself. The 10k is a great warm up with a heck of a 3 mile start.

Which one are you going to choose before it sells out?

📸: This is Ben Endress during his first ITHOTN 100k. He swore he'd never do it again. He also completed it the next year too to earn the double down. :)

The boxes have officially started to change color! We will probably sell out sooner than we did last year. If you want a spot, do not wait to sign up!
