Today’s Marathon & Beyond Monday edition is a tale written by ultra-marathon pioneer Gordy Ainsleigh. Gordy is the man who — in 1974 — took part in the Western States 100-Mile One-Day Ride … without a horse. Since then, the story has been told and re-told, but only one person knows the full truth. That person is Gordy. We hear that story “Inventing 100-mile Trail Racing” in today’s edition.
