  • On May 2nd, 2021, Dylan Bowman attempted to set a new Fastest Known Time on Southern California's famous Backbone Trail. This 67 mile route has roughly 13k' of elevation gain and traverses the coastal mountains between Santa Monica and Malibu. This was a key milestone in Dylan's training for the Hardrock 100 in July. Here's the story of how it played out. In short, it was an incredible day!

    Amazing ! What an amazing endeavour. I'm really excited to see about a trail I plan to hike, that I have little to no idea about, and will watch it a few times in the near future. It looks like there are some exposed sections of the trail, and it is totally important to know that::so I am totally appreciating this, even though I can't afford to sponsor right now. I hope the run recovery went well.
    I look forward to stopping in at the two offices and stations, and checking out the trailheads.
    T.Y.!

    Dylan, legendary stuff dude, holy shit man!!! You snapped the backbone! Thank you for bringing this perspective and power to ultra trail running. You ran with a group of the coolest dudes to share miles with and learn about running from in SoCal! I am blown away by your athleticism and mind. I’ve never met you but I consider you a role model just as I do with those three dudes- thanks to my coach Jeffrey, Jesse, and Ben, without you 4 guys ultrarunning history as we know it would be incomplete! Thanks also for the amazing content you provide, Dylan!!
