Not a finisher

So, the UTMB talks a good talk, but they don’t actually back it up. Despite all that they say that this was a real UTMB, their actions say otherwise.
I found this little gem on their website.

The 2012 UTMB gained finishers 3 points.

So, I do not have enough points to qualify for next year. I am one point short. Now maybe this is a good thing. I will have time to do other things in 2013; I have wanted to visit Montreal again. The only reason I didn’t this year, was my friends were going at the same time as the Mont Blanc.
However, as soon as I found out, I did start looking for any ultras this year where I could get that one point. There are a couple in California, and some in eastern Canada. None in Alberta.
If I don’t get that extra point, I will have to finish the Sinister 7 next year. And I’ll probably do the Death Race for good measure. Then I will have enough points!
