๐โโ๏ธ๐ฒ ITRA STRAVA LEADERBOARD UPDATE! ๐ฒ๐โโ๏ธ
Last week was a battle for the top spot โ with just ONE-TENTH OF A MILE separating #1 and #2! ๐คฏ๐ฅ
And the miles are already stacking up this week. Mark is right back at the top after logging 100.1 miles last week โ and thereโs still plenty of time for this weekโs leaderboard to move around. ๐
Whether youโre chasing the leaderboard, training for your next race, or just getting out for a few trail miles, every mile counts.
