- Trail race schedule
Nothing gets me running like a race schedule. This summer has been quite pathetic on the running front so I am going to remedy that by scheduling a few fall and winter races. Yes, winter races. I can already hear you all: running in the snow, and freezing cold? Well yes… and looking forward to it too. Now the 3 running musketeers are going to try and get back together for an awesome running time – every day running is on the schedule apparently. The two musketeers have been doing really well without me; I am the slacker!
So our first race is going to be Vulture Bait in October.
- Seaton Trail: trail running! Finally!
Just managed to get one of the last spots for the Seaton Trail race this weekend. These trail races are organized by the Mudpuppies. The course is a 13 km out and back along Duffins Creek featuring single track trail, water crossings, tuff long hills, lots of ups and downs, twists and turns and roots and rocks. Apparently it is a true ultrarunner’s dream. I remember the first time I ran this trail I cursed all the way to the finish line. This bloody trail has tons of ups and downs and a billion roots to try and avoid. Photos from previous years don’t do it justice. I don’t even know why I am returning to do this race but hey, I love a challenge. I will avoid the water crossing as much as possible – perhaps there will be a bridge: doing a water crossing right at the start of a race is a pain, your shoes get wet, your socks get wet and all you get at the end of the day is giant blisters!I am doing the 26km race, but there is a 52 and 78 KM race as well! Fun times.
