Ultrarunning legend Scott Jurek may go to trial to fight three summonses he received from Maine’s Baxter State Park at the end of his record breaking Appalachian Trail thru-hike earlier this summer, pending a meeting on September 9 in Millinocket, Maine, according to an article on RunnersWorld.com.
