  • Comments: I really did like this trail race! It wasn't as technical as a few others I've been on and quite different than FOTM 50K without all the numerous stream crossings. There were still roots, rocks, and elevation changes to deal with but overall a decent trail and I could see why it would be fast for those who can train on it here. Although this was the inaugural year for the 50K, the race crew got a good amount right with only a few improvements I could see. There wasn't a whole lot of activities afterwards though and as I wrote, I kinda happened to find out that the pint glasses were being given to the finishers. No one handed me one after I finished like they did at the National Duathlon Championships. Good thing I found them. But, super volunteer support, trail markings (did hear someone got lost but don't see how), and race staff plus good weather made this an enjoyable event. An added bonus was sharing it with good friends! Pics below: - Maria snapped a pic of me finishing -
