Timothy Olson

Western States 100 winner Timothy Olson comes in at number 4. Many observers think that Olson’s Western States win – 15:17:27 on a 102-degree day – is the most impressive time in the race’s venerable history. A massage therapist from Ashland, Oregon, Olson slowed in the final yards to carry his 10-month-old son Tristan across the finish line. Olson was also top American at UTMB, finishing fourth overall.

Meghan Arbogast

Meghan Arbogast gives all appearances of being like a fine wine, only improving as she ages. Now 52, Arbogast won Way Too Cool, the largest 50K in the US, and placed well in highly competitive events like Western States, Lake Sonoma 50, and White River 50. A coach and massage therapist, Arbogast recently moved from Corvallis, Oregon to Cool, California.
