This is my first 100 mile mountain race. If your new, My name is Paul and I started running beginning of 2023. 100 days in I completed the 6th hardest marathon on earth. After that I ran 80 miles in a 24 hour challenge and placed 2nd. I went on to run a 50 miler on Catalina Island, 50k near Folsom Lake, 100k In Oregon (my first dnf) where people where messing with the course markers, and now this.
This is one of the toughest 100 milers around. Being close to home I signed up. Solitude is something I enjoy about long distance running. In this 100 miler I find I enjoy solitude only so long. I hope you enjoy my film. This film Highlights both loops of the Cool Moon course. There are MANY races during the Cool Moon 100. Their race website and information are below. Message me on this films comments or Instagram for more information, or just to say hi. Cheers!

Each runner will complete (4) 13.5-mile loops and (4) 11.5-mile loops to achieve the 100-mile distance. Runners will start North on a 13.5-mile, counter-clockwise loop from Cool Firehouse, running two miles down the historic Western States trail, heading up Pig Farm trail/to the top of K2. then parts of Olmstead trail to the Ranch, then South on Olmstead to some amazing back country single track then to the Salt Creek Loop Trail south toward the American River and back up the various single track, The Ranch, then back to Cool. Next, they will follow an 11.5-mile loop from Cool Firehouse South down Knickerbocker trail to Blue Oak trail, Olmstead, various connectors and across Triple Creek to Knickerbocker, then South on Olmstead to the Rim Trail, to Pilot Hill, then Olmstead to Catecroft, hidden lake trails, back to Knickerbocker, and back to Cool.
