Great race today put on today by Kat and Rob and of course John and PJ. I think Kat and Rob have set a high standard for the rest of the H.U.R.T. Trail Series race directors. The pig on the trail is a first I think? Sure there was a bit of mud out there…

Umstead Update #1

Umstead 100 and Dr. Bill

Our regular training runs do not actually go through the nesting…
