Pretty good source, if we are to believe it 😜

I was sure he was Knee Guy, but then there was some evidence (bsky.app/profile/stor...) presented that he was not, in fact, Knee Guy. Perhaps we’ll never know.

I'm trying to catch up on #BM100 after being distracted by a little ER visit - Did we every find out if John Kelly was even racing this year? I know he wasn't Knee Guy, but did being a knee guy (generic) keep him out of the race?

This is kind of good advice for life in general #BM100

Definitely correct that they don't have GPS, but the area isn't that small, and you definitely could get lost for quite a while, with the terms "small" and "quite a while" being relative #BM100

If you've ever wondered if you'd keep following the #BM100 while in the emergency room, today I learned that yes, yes I would (everyone is okay, but was legit discussing how many were on Loop 3 while waiting for test results).

Oh my god thank you! Another #BM100 hero.

Yes! The drawing 😂 I hope the official #BM100 historian has a screenshot of all these epic events.

And I take #interloopal content very seriously, so this is perfect. We all remember the shower burrito, so glad that the milkshake debate lives on as well. #BM100

Do you actually remember this, or are you just trolling me? Either way, I love it.

A few years back I was in a heated debate on what John Kelly was eating during an #interloopal period. And then his brother chimed in. It was glorious. (85% sure it was his brother, happened on the evil bird website, thus cannot fact check myself).

A source in camp? You're living the #BM100 dream.

Now there's a source to cite!

I demand you cite your sources! (you know, because this is all very official and serious) #BM100

But also, I believe @keithdunn.bsky.social has been known to double up on nicknames, so we can't assume that one person couldn't have more than one nickname. #BM100 has no rules. Except... all the rules.

After some image searching, I was thinking Max King could be Chiseled Jaw Guy. I think Knee Guy might be John Kelly, as he recently injured his knee. Mathieu Blanchard is also a contender for Chiseled Jaw Guy, but I wonder if he's already one of the French Guys.

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
Cut to me, googling images of the potential runners, trying to determine whose jaw is most chiseled. #BM100 is for serious sports fans only.

Thanks for braving the doom site and sharing back with Bluesky. I refuse to look at that hellscape.

Oh no, I didn't use the #BM100 hashtag. Now how will the kids see my funny post?

Surprised to learn that @taka-does-stuff.bsky.social is not a robot that comes alive once a year at the bidding of @keithdunn.bsky.social and Laz. Also, needs sleep? Weird. Can’t drop everything for 60 hours straight? Hard to believe.

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
Yes!

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
That’s a good guess. Mathieu is French speaking!
000
autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
Yes. Definitely should not assume French accent means from France. Probably shouldn’t even assume accent means accent 😜

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
If the Barkley gods allow. @taka-does-stuff.bsky.social seems to be MIA at the moment though, perhaps the unexpectedly early #BM100 start caught them off guard.

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
Alright kids, update your spreadsheets and post-it notes. Start pondering what exactly an "accent" even is. Heck, what is even "French"? Could five be a misleading code word?

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
This isn't quite the #interloopal food talk that I live for, but good to see there's already some reports of who is eating what, even if it's not a runner. #BM100

I just realized the Barkley Marathons started and involuntarily did a little scream. And then immediately had to log into my special #BM100 app (ie. Bluesky, which I only use for this one event).

Just had to chime in on my own post to say I watched this last night and it was fantastic. I think I'm going to start an official Tomo fan club. #BM100

Good point re: fewer interloopal periods. Although I'd still love to see more from the campsite, even from the tapped out runners. But alas, the Barkley doesn't always give us what we want. We take what the Barkely gives us. A lesson for life #BM100.

"absurdist performance art" is a perfect description

Finally! This is the #interloopal content I've been waiting for. #BM100

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
Yes, definitely less info on the interloopal period. Which is a shame, because I *need* to know what people are eating.

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
That's a short interloopal period. Barely time to even drink a milkshake or eat 10 bags of potato chips. #BM100

If anyone's looking for some Tomo content, it looks like there's a whole documentary about his 2023 attempt, that I somehow haven't seen. I thought I was up on all the #BM100 docs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m34i...

Exactly. It's more of a multi-year iterative challenge. Or something like that. #BM100

I'm on board with this. Let it be officially decreed: a burrito made in the shower and consumed on the trail is a shower burrito for the road!

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
With these quick turnarounds, anyone catch any good #interloopal content? How many coca colas were shotgunned? What noodles are people eating? Anyone taking a shower burrito for the road? Can you even take a shower burrito for the road, or does it become a trail burrito at that point? #BM100

Last year a few of us had a great thread speculating on what John Kelly was eating, and then *John Kelly's brother* chimed in. Now that's a great real life crossover! The beauty of "watching" the #BM100.

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 18/03/2025
My account is new, but as with previous years, I’m here for the #interloopal content. Show me the nood(le)s! #BM100

autopilotstar.bsky.social @autopilotstar.bsky.social · 18/03/2025
I vowed no more new social media after I gave up the doom-bird site but apparently I easily cave for the #BM100.

This bluesky account is about 20 minutes old. The Barkley Marathons started about 22 minutes ago. You do the math. #BM100
