The premier proper postpandemic* Dizzy Daze was marked by moderate weather, a lack of major incident, and general mirth throughout the field.
Standout performances in the half-day run came from Trisha Steidl, who broke the women’s course record with 23 laps in 11:55:04, and Saulius Braciulis, who ran 22 laps in 11:51:22 after arriving on a scooter. (He had started out by running to the start before running across the scooter.) In the 5-hour Ray Sharp squeaked in 11 loops with a minute and nine seconds’ margin for error, and Hannah Meredith ran a solid 9 loops in 4:25:57. At least five dogs ran in the race, and they all win.
