In this weeks episode we have the unique opportunity to speak with Buzz Burrell who created Fastest Know Time (FTK) with his business and adventure partner Peter Bakwin.

Buzz is the 1999 Colorado Trail record holder completing it in 11 days, 16 hours and 13 minutes. In 2000, Buzz and Peter set the record on the John Muir Trail (222 miles) in 4 days, 14 hours and 39 minutes. Buzz also hosts a popular Podcast on the FKT site.

There is so much more that Buzz has accomplished which can be found in a wonderful article in Trail Runner Magazine. Click Here to read the article.

Recently Buzz retired from Ultimate Direction, a company which focuses on athlete inspired hydration based in Broomfield, Colorado just outside of Boulder. Very popular and well designed hydration belts, vests and more.

And of course, Co-Race Directors of the Virtual Colorado Trail Challange, Bryan Williams and Coach David Manthey we have updates and recognize a few runners and their experience thus far in the challenge!
