Well, it’s official. Karl Meltzer will attempt to break Scott Jurek’s AT thru-hike record (supported) of 46 days, 8 hours and 7 minutes this upcoming summer. Being the winningest 100 mile runner ever and coining the term, ‘100 miles is not that far,’ setting the AT speed record is last big goal on ‘Speedgoat’ Karl’s bucket list. Powered by Red Bull, Karl has multiple wins at the Hardrock 100, Wasatch 100 and Bear 100. Karl is an ultrarunning original and has always pushed the envelope, even with the shoes he wears.

Ogden is becoming the Utah hotbed for the arts. We’re all aware the culture in Ogden supports
outdoor adventure, but did you know said culture also supports one heck of a
drag show?!
Sisters Washington, Alicia and Camille, have
brought live performing arts to downtown 25th Street with Good
Company Theatre. Good Company Theatre
has produced ‘high quality, eclectic theatrical productions’ since 2012. Alicia is the ‘Flygirl’ and Camille is the
‘Alpha’ sister, but with the support of their Mother, Colleen, who empowered
the sisters to take risks, Good Company Theatre has been a dream come true for
the Washington Family.
