Runners in Trivium Racing's Pilot Mountain to Hanging Rock ultra races on Saturday moved forward in reverse.

The races featured a one-time shift of directions, from a starting line at Hanging Rock State Park to the finish line in Pilot Mountain State Park. Instead of PM2HR, 2021 offered HR2PM.

Runners from nearby Winston-Salem were strong, grabbing second through fifth places in the men's 50K and second in the women's 50K, plus a second and a fourth in the 50-mile races.

While those runners needed to make only short trips to race, Winston-Salem's Donnie Cowart set a course record, in two hours, 19 minutes and 58 seconds (a 5:21-per-mile pace) to win the Wineglass Marathon in Corning, N.Y., on Sunday. Winston-Salem's Molly Nunn is a former Wineglass champion.
