Men's FKT: Jared Campbell, 16h40m, Sept. 7, 2015.
Women's FKT: Alexis Crellin & Stacey Pearson, 26h25m (accomanied), August 9, 2015.
Jared Campbell's WURL page describes it like this: "The Wasatch Ultimate Ridge Linkup or “WURL” is an incredible ridge route circumnavigating Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. The route mainly consists of scrambling, boulder hopping, and a few rugged trails. It is ~36 miles long with ~18kft of elevation gain." Campbell's site gives much more information and a list of completions. Campbell first completed the route on August 7, 2004, in 21h30m. On September 7, 2009, Nic Berry set an excellent time of 17h48m for the FKT, which stood for 6 years until Campbell's 16h40m. The women's FKT was also set in 2015, 26h25m, by Alexis Crellin and Stacey Pearson (who were accompanied by Matthew Irving).
