This week on The Running Mullet

Grayce and Eric - reunited again!

We’re breaking down the Hills Creek Endurance Challenge—a race that sounds simple until you realize it’s just you, your thoughts, and the same 3-mile loop… over… and over… and over again.

A scenic loop around a lake in Wellsboro, PA… mostly singletrack, just enough elevation to challenge you, and exactly enough visibility of the finish line to make quitting way too easy.

This challenge allows you to pick your poison, giving you a 3 hour, 6 hour, or 12 hour option.

Or, you can choose the relay if you have friends (must be nice.)

It’s not about distance—it’s about how long you can keep lying to yourself:“Just one more loop.”

Join us as we talk:

• Loop math that stops making sense after hour 4
• Aid station strategy vs. emotional damage
• The psychological warfare of seeing your car every 3 miles

Plus — how do you measure success at a race where the only rule is don’t stop?

Grayce and Eric are back together to discuss it all — the highs, the lows, and the very specific kind of suffering only a timed loop race can deliver. Because at Hills Creek, you’re not chasing a finish line… you’re negotiating with it.
