I've already started working on the rankings for 2016, with a few minor tweaks as I outlined earlier. Some exciting news: I'm working with the good folks at Ultrarunning magazine to try to bring these rankings to a wider audience. In the coming weeks, we hope to have a dedicated page on the UR website for these rankings (which I think I'm going to rename the Gunksrunner Ultra Rankings, you know, building the brand and all).
As always, peruse the entire list here. (Helpful hint from some smart folks: use CTRL-F to search for your name on the sheet.)
