The Moab 240 2017 in Utah, USA finished on October 17th with a 112 hour cut-off. The course follows the Colorado River, running through canyons and into the Abajo Mountains and circling back around to the La Sal Mountains to reach 11,000 feet and finishes with the Porcupine Rim Trail back to Moab
The race was won by Courtney Dewalter from Colorado with a performance that stunned the ultrarunning community by finishing 10 hours before the first man, Sean Nakamura, arrived at the finish line. Setting a new course record of 57:55:13, Courtney slept for 21 minutes, which will take some beating. Sean Nakamura won the Tahoe 200 last month also setting a new course record of 58:29:16.
