Starting the new year off strong with a walk or your way back into shape. Looking forward to another night trail run starting at 6PM through the single track mtb trail or the paved Soda lake loop route. This is a great way to get ready for that ultra you've been training for or just want to change it up from early saturday morning start times.
Single Track MTB trail is TBD with all of the new trails being built, we just can't decide where the race route will take you yet. Trail is typically rolling with very little roots or debris.
Soda lake loop is our beginner friendly route around 4.5 miles but paved the whole way for those unsure about footing or it being dark. Grab your buddy and lets go!
Head Lamps are recommended but a light source of some kind is mandatory in order to run the race.
Working on some overall prizes and a few items to raffle off to anyone with a bib number along with a good meal to eat after you finish.
