NATR #1 - 4:40 mile

Zwift - Tempus Fugit in Watopia

While researching the trail last night I noticed that it was an FKT (Fastest Known Time) segment and that the only person who had attempted it and submitted a time had done so in several inches of snow.

The first snow of the season started while I was eating breakfast. Made for a wet run with a little snow sticking at higher elevations. I went out cautiously not really knowing what to expect. The trail had its quirks (about a full mile of boardwalks, well over 1k elevation gain) but was really well marked. Actually, the rangers were doing some maintenance on the lower parts while I was running.

I arrived at the turnaround around 1:35 so knew I had the FKT covered (walked around and took some pictures) but then pushed a bit to finish in under 3 hours. I am still pretty awful at trail running. Likely will be the only FKT I ever snag.

This FKT was ratified! https://fastestknowntime.com/route/grand-portage-trail-mn
