She ran it perfectly and won! The Fan Club is ecstatic.
It is our greatest pleasure to share with you that Michelle Hiland achieved FIRST place out of 167 women in the 50K Golden Gate Dirty 30 Mountain & Trail Run on June 1, 2019!!!!! She was the only woman to finish in under 6 hours with a winning time of 5 hours 53 minutes and 24.4 seconds. The second place female finisher was 31 minutes behind her.
Out of the 432 total women (167) and men (265) who ran the race, Michelle came in 14th overall, so she ran faster than 252 men! Her pace over the 31+ miles was 11:22 minute miles.
Check out the Elevation Profile on this race. It's grueling.
Remember last year when she took third in this same race and also took a nasty tumble? We knew it was only a matter of time that she would take first place and we are so proud. We can all say "we knew her when . . . "
