karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 16/02/2026This feed is amazing! @taka-does-stuff.bsky.social : it proves the attedance of quite a few runners. We finally know for sure: JOHN KELLY WAS THER. 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 16/02/2026thank you for sharing! This is some great footage :) 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 16/02/2026Absolutely no idea. Must be a few years ago, and I think it was something Belgian 😑 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026It feels very wrong that companies would make money of #bm100, if that company isn't run by Laz. 0151 15
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026I think it is safe to assume that our yearly hobby will not last a lot longer. #bm100 1170 17
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/202628 hours in, and only 6 runners are Out There. 1 has been Out There for a bit too long on loop 1. Oh, the stories (s)he could tell. This also means that the other one on loop 1 has returned. 1 is still out on loop 2. A lot of runners returned, more than previous years? Ideas? #bm100 0120 12
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Your phone is already on Barkley time. 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026We have a (French?) dude who put on trash bags over his shoes in lap one and Damo who is off barefoot. Footwear seems to be the shower burrito of this year's #bm100 1160 16
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Ultras focus on endurance, instead of power. That is why onder athletes are better. I once read a scientific article about this, but cannot find it anymore. 120 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026For Ultrarunners, age is usually an advantage. Our Belgian backyard monsters like Merijn Geerts and Frank Gielen aren't that young anymore. 110 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026You also want to run alone for a bit, in order to learn how to navigate on your own for loop 5. Runners have made the mistake (Damo even I think) to rely on others, and then tot lost on the last loop which they have to run alone. 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Right, teacher-tired me sleept in late again. Read the summary of what's going on. WHAT OS GOING ON, DAMO? WHY?? #BM100 030 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 15/02/2026This sums it up perfectly I fear. 020 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Yep. I felt like there was something not mathing in my head. Well, time to go to bed then :) 000 0
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Thanx. I closed that tab a few hours ago, and completely forgot the name :D 000 0
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Am I correct, assuming that they need to come in within the next 2,5 minutes let's say, if they wanna keep on running? My cut off math is completely warped, as I am superbad at math and time and honestly, my brain just cannot. #bm100 340 4
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Okay, 8 guys are out on loop 2 and a ninth will follom soon. That's a little bit better than last year. #bm100 040 4
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026No, was exactly my thought as well. 030 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Just realised it was a day with a lot of Belgians competing. Completely missed it. Shame, as it is my other immense obsession. 020 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Tomo was always happy, but apparently also not competing. I am really bad at the guessing game. #bm100 040 4
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026The shower burrito, and then the drawing of how we assumed a burrito was eaten in the shower. Epic times. 210 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Oh, that was an amazing moment!! 020 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026oh, @keithdunn.bsky.social, you wonderfully goofy guy. Water Ballon Guy has begun loop 2. WHO IS THIS? #BM100 050 5
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Oh my, didn't realise it was close to sleepy-time. Dammit. 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Okay, the 5 are on their way on loop 2, 35 are still on loop 1. Could this be a huge cut already? #bm100 120 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Oh my, That might be so. I love these guessing games :) 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026I always saw John Kelly as a path finder, but chances are big he's not participating. #bm100 130 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Damnn, @keithdunn.bsky.social posts a bit earlier on X, gotta keep opening the app of doom :D Five finished loop 1 #bm100 3101 10
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Yeah, would it be everyone or everyone-minus-the-one-drop? 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Big update! The picture of Sévérine wasn't at #bm100!! According to an observant X-user,it’s from a previous edition of the French spinoff race / Barkley tribute chartreuse terminorum. The article is still correct though, Sévérine should be a participant :) 060 6
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Let's assume that CCW is the reason this is taking so long. Maybe combined with @keithdunn.bsky.social having too much fun leaving us in the dark. Next loop is CCW as well, so this will be brutal. #BM100 0100 10
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026... there is one extra Dutch speaking person, a Spanish and a Swiss person as well, according to the plates. And they should all be first-timers. #bm100 060 6
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Okay, we have a few names from @taka-does-stuff.bsky.social 's amazing list. @keithdunn.bsky.social metioned 5 people having a French accent, so we could maybe add 1 extra French on the list, as I think Sévérine speaks French as well. If the photo with Severine is accurate, ... #bm100 230 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Went for dinner to my parents. Time to catch up on 5 hrs of #bm100 030 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026He will return, but it'll take time. 120 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026You at least have to get attacked by Rat Jaw 130 3
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Yep. I hate data, math and stats, but for the time being, I'm their biggest fan and interpreter :D 020 2
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Glad to see you're back as well! 000 0
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026This is wonderful news. Our dearest Taka will be back with the spreadsheet that fullfills our obsessive needs. I did post a picture with some known plates. Very curious to see who's competing. #bm100 260 6
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Is Anna only on Mastodon? I really want to limit my number of extra social media accounts :D 100 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026I should have had a clue with Severine's article from 9 February, but my brain just didn't put 1 and 1 together. I'm not sure if Taka is still on social media, for the good spreadsheet :( 110 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026He said after his win, he wouldn't return. 010 1
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Okay, so, from the picture here, we can guess there is 1 Belgian, 1 Belgian or Dutch person (dinsdag-plate), a French, a Swiss, a Spanish, a Norwegian, another French and two more European. The left ones are American, yes? #bm100 #barkleymarathons www.belgiumrunning.be/actualites/s...belgiumrunning.beSéverine Vandermeulen: une femme belge au départ de la Barkley pour la première foisLa Liégeoise Séverine Vandermeulen sera la première femme Belge à participer à la Barkley d'ici quelques jours 050 5
karendewindt.bsky.social @karendewindt.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Yeah, that should be doable. Very cold nights probably though. 110 1
