The 2012 Western States 100 Endurance Run on June 23 was a great race run in near perfect conditions. Both men and women's course records were set. Tim Olson of Ashland OR set a new men's record and first sub-fifteen hour time of 14:46:44. Ellie Greenwood of Canada took down a Ann Trason's 18 year old women's record with a time of 16:47:19. It was a great run for all the finishers.
