What a year for Drymax athletes Jamie Donaldson and Lisa Bliss. Their performances can only be called incredible. According to Ultrarunning Magazine Jamie and Lisa took 3 of the top 10 women's times in 100 mile races during 2008.

2008 Badwater Women's Champion Jamie Donaldson ran the fastest 100 mile race in 2008 completing the arduous and wet Umstead 100 mile race in a record shattering 16 hours 21 minutes and 10 seconds without a single blister. Her Umstead 100 time was so impressive that it was the fastest time by 34 minutes.

Jamie also ran the 6th fastest 100 mile race in 2008 completing the Javelina Jundred in just 18 hours, 43 minutes and 57 seconds without a blister.

Lisa Bliss

2007 Badwater Women's Champion Lisa Bliss' time of 19 hours, 42 minutes and 44 seconds at the 2008 Umstead 100 garnered her the 10th fastest 100 mile time in 2008 without a blister. She finished 2nd to Jamie Donaldson.

We are especially honored to have these elite athletes racing in Drymax socks.
