When frontrunning American Jim Walmsley packed it in after going a few seconds under the longstanding 50-mile world record at Hoka One One's Project Carbon X 100 km , two-time world champion Hideaki Yamauchi was quick to take over. Well under world record pace at halfway despite being 3 minutes behind Warmsley at that stage, Yamauchi slowed as temperatures rose in the second half but had no real competition after taking the lead and sailed on to win in 6:19:54, almost 14 minutes ahead of runner-up Patrick Reagan . Yoshiki Takada was just over 18 minutes behind Reagan in 3rd in 6:52:03. The lone finisher in the women's race, American Sabrina Little took the women's title in 7:49:28.
