Issaquah Native Bennet Murch Places 3rd at the Tahoe 200 Ultra Marathon

Congrats to Issaquah native Bennet Murch for an impressive 3rd place finish at the Tahoe 200! Battling cold temperatures, minimal sleep, 35K+ feet of elevation gain and over 200 miles of trails, Murch rolled in just under 60 hours with a time of 59 hours and 53 minutes. 

Murch has had a breakout year placing 1st at the Ozark Foothills 100 and setting a course record of 19:28:16. Still early on in his ultra running career, we can't wait to see what he accomplishes next.
