On Wednesday, Subertas won the Cocodona 250 in Arizona, breaking the race record by finishing in 59 hours, 50 minutes, 55 seconds. Subertas admitted to trying to push too hard at the onset, but a pair of 15-minute naps energized him as he got going into his second full day of running. That allowed him to keep pace with the top group, and eventually he found himself in second place outside of Sedona. He realized he was also on pace to crack 60 hours, which was his ultimate goal.
With just a couple miles left in the race, he caught Browning, who had been slowed by bronchial airway inflammation and was having difficulty breathing. “I was always looking for a challenge,” he said. “That’s how I ended up in Alaska, the mountains and mountaineering.” Ultramarathon runner Harry Subertas races a trail on the Cocodona 250 in Arizona.
