  • Ok this might be opening (re-opening?) a can of worms here, but it's very clear from 'the length of time' that Josh also had a camera crew tail/meet him at numerous points during the route. The very same thing that Lael got so much shit for, enough that it contributed towards her decision to scratch. All the while no mention was made of Josh and team coming under the same scrutiny or abiding by the same restrictions (i.e. spot trackers for all camera crew etc.) at the same time they didn't even stick their heads above the parapet and stick up for Lael by acknowledging publicly that they were doing the same thing? Is it just me or is this a little bit shitty on their part?

  • It’s not just you.

    But I completely disagree with individuals having their own camera crew.

  • I dont know if this is all in the spirit of ultra racing in its purist form. But probably the ones who've actually raced or organised multiple races should have the final say on that.

  • She mentions this in her film. I'm not sure if having someone with you and racing at the pointy end of a race would be a help. It would feel like a hindrance to me

  • Yep, I've been saying this in my circles for a while. And that's how we know that Lael was picked on, regardless of whether she violated the rules or not.
