Wasilla runner wins 100-mile race; teen victorious in Running with the Bulls

WASILLA — David Johnston has conquered another adventure race.

Last weekend, the Wasilla runner won the Resurrection Pass 100, a race that leads competitors over treterous trai from Cooper Landing to Hope and back. Johnston finished the course, plagued by less than ideal running conditions, in 21 hours and 12 minutes to win his second 100-miler in six months. Johnston, 40, also won the Susitna 100 in February.

Laura McDonough was second, finishing halfway through her 23rd hour on the trail.
