#90: Sandy VI-Burruss and the Space Pirate 100

Florida Trail Runners Podcast

The Space Pirate 100 had its inaugural year this year starting in Cape Canaveral and ending all the way south at the Treasure Coast! Starting off on the chat, we've got your Race Directors, Luis Cocco and Tuan Nguyen! These guys had an idea and it's amazing to see it come to life and turn into such an amazing race.

Then! We've got Sandy VI-Burruss on the chat, she was your second place for the women at this year's Space Pirate! She took it home with a time of 21:42:37! Her experience with the 100 Mile, and over 100 miles is absolutely incredible! In 2017, she set female World Record for the North American Transcontinental Run. That record had been standing since 1978, when South African Mavis Hutchinson ran from Los Angeles to New York City in 69 days.

She's also done races like the Javelina 100, 6 Days in the Dome, Across the Years, Daytona 100, Keys 100, Miami 100, the Lost 118, and she was the Womens Champion at the 2017 Badwater 135! Absolutely amazing!
