🔥 EPIC ULTRAS TRAFFIC ERUPTION 🔥

Cold, Server-Side Proof That EpicUltras.com
Is Owning the Ultra Conversation…Again!

Opinions are cheap.

Rumors are cheap.

Social posts come and go.

Server logs don’t lie.

What you’re looking at here is AWStats data straight off the EpicUltras.com server, not a Canva graphic, not a marketing slide, not some “trust me, bro” screenshot.

This is machine-counted proof of what’s really happening behind the scenes.

🚀 DECEMBER 2025 (PARTIAL) – ALREADY A MONSTER

We’re not even a third of the way through December and EpicUltras.com is already sitting on:

  • 2,356 unique visitors

  • 6,724 visits

  • 54,487 pages viewed

  • 80,682 hits

  • 123.11 GB of bandwidth served

That’s before we’ve even opened one race to the GP, or dropped our next wave of content and offerings.

On this pace, December is going to dwarf everything that came before it.

💣 NOVEMBER 2025 – 8,222 UNIQUES

More Than UltraRunning Magazine’s Published Subscriber Base

Ask any modern AI model for the published subscriber base of UltraRunning Magazine and it’ll come back with the same thing:
“7,500+ subscribers.”

Now look at November:

  • 8,222 unique visitors

  • Tens of thousands of visits

  • Hundreds of thousands of page loads

  • Massive bandwidth consumption

That means, in one month, more unique humans hit EpicUltras.com than UltraRunning Magazine even claims as paying subscribers.

This isn’t “comeback energy.”

This is market-share-theft energy.

📈 OCTOBER + NOVEMBER – A TWO-MONTH WAVE OF OBSESSION

Stack October and November and the picture gets even bloodier:

  • 12,000+ unique visitors

  • Well over half a million hits

  • More than 2 terabytes of data served

That is the footprint of:

  • a movement

  • a rumor mill on fire

  • a fanbase checking in repeatedly

  • people hammering archives, stats, reports, and every page they can find to figure out what the hell is happening with Epic Ultras 2.0

This is not casual browsing.

This is obsession.

🧠 THE REAL TELL: RATIOS THAT SCREAM “STICKY AS HELL”

High-level operators don’t just look at raw numbers…they look at behavior.

Pages per visit: 7–9+

Normal sites limp along at 1–2 pages per visit.

EpicUltras.com visitors are consuming 7, 8, 9 pages every time they show up.

Hits per visit: 11–17+

Again, way beyond average.
That means people are loading:

  • galleries

  • archives

  • blog posts

  • stats reports

  • multiple sections per session

They’re not glancing.

They’re digging.

Bandwidth: Hundreds of GB per month, multi-TB total

You don’t burn that much bandwidth on “curious” traffic.

You burn it when people are fully immersed, scrolling, reading, screenshotting, sharing, going down rabbit holes.

This is what cult-following metrics look like.

🧩 “COULDN’T SOMEONE JUST PHOTOSHOP THIS?”

Short Answer: No. Long Answer: Hell No!

Anyone who understands AWStats knows how hard it would be to fake these visuals convincingly.

To fudge these charts you’d have to:

  • Precisely replicate bar heights across five metrics (uniques, visits, pages, hits, bandwidth)

  • Maintain correct proportional differences between every month

  • Match the exact pixel spacing, color gradients, and overlays

  • Rebuild every legend, axis, and value so it still lines up mathematically

This isn’t dragging a few numbers in Excel.
You’d need:

  • high-end graphics chops

  • pixel-level manipulation

  • an intimate understanding of AWStats’ rendering logic

  • and hours of forensic-level work

AWStats is used by agencies and hosting providers specifically because it’s log-driven and client-proof.

These aren’t vanity charts, they’re built from server access logs line by line.

Faking all of that would be more work than just earning the traffic in the first place.

🧨 THE TRIFECTA OF “ARGUE WITH THIS AND YOU’LL LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT” EVIDENCE

This page is one leg of our stool of “overwhelming evidence” or receipts as it’s many times referred to now.

You can see it interlinked with:

  1. Historical EU Stats (2013–2015):
    Where we show how Epic Ultras dominated the ultra scene long before most of the current clipboard warriors even knew what a 100-miler was.

  2. Eric Steele’s “Top 10 Dead Giveaways of a Shitty Ultra Report”:
    Where Eric very specifically lays out, in brutal detail, the difference between a real a high quality ultra and the weak-ass, watered-down knockoffs.

  3. These 2025 Server Stats:
    Cold, current proof that the audience has followed the energy right back to Epic Ultras.

Three different angles.

Three different timeframes.

One unified message:

Epic Ultras isn’t “coming back.”

Epic Ultras 2.0 is NOT some damn “reunion tour.”

Epic Ultras sets the tone…and our numbers prove it.

MORE OVERWHELMING PROOF

Epic Ultra Statistics

Top 10 Dead Giveaways of a Shitty Ultra–by Eric Steele

 

At the end of the day, the numbers don’t lie…and the numbers don’t care who doubts, who whispers, or who gets uncomfortable. They just sit there, cold, raw, undeniable.

This is the part where every clipboard warrior, every PMP-punk theorist, every committee-coddled “decision maker,” and every behind-the-scenes thumb-dick who thought they understood this sport gets their spine straightened by simple arithmetic.

You don’t have to like Epic Ultras.

You don’t have to “get” Epic Ultras.

You sure as hell don’t have to approve of our tone.

But you cannot argue with:

  • the historic dominance laid out in our Stats Archive,

  • Eric Steele’s personal ultra-resume inside the Top 10 Dead Giveaways of a Shitty Ultra,

  • and our web-server logs shown above — public, timestamped, pixel-armored, and generating more traffic in 30 days than most organizations in this sport see in an entire year.

This is not opinion.

This is not nostalgia.

This is not some “reunion tour.”

This is fact. This is force. This is the new standard.

If the data offends you…good.
If the momentum rattles you…good.
If the truth stings, well, read it and weep.

Because here’s the simple, brutal reality:

Epic Ultras isn’t asking for permission.

Epic Ultras isn’t waiting for approval.

Epic Ultras is setting the tone, and our numbers prove it.

Touch it.

Challenge it.

Deny it.

Every single line, chart, pageview, and damn terabyte says the same thing:

Epic Ultras has already shifted the landscape — and we haven’t even held the first race of the new era yet.

If you’re a runner: welcome.
If you’re a fan: buckle up.
If you’re a competitor: pay attention.
If you’re a hater: bookmark this page — you’ll be back.

Because facts don’t bend.

Proof doesn’t flinch.

Our wave isn’t slowing down for anybody, it’s a deep-Pacific freight-train swell rolling into the North Shore, and if you’re not already dropping in, you’re already underwater.

As a matter of fact…we’ve only just begun!!!
