Gamehaven

There aren't a lot of pictures of the Gamehaven race because of the steady rain. Here is one someone took that gives you an idea of the conditions that day.

Gamehaven part II

Here is miles 2.5 through 4 of the cross country run. We changed the second creek crossing. Our first choice was a little too deep and muddy:-)

Gamehaven update

KC and I hacked out the second creek crossing last night. There seems to be a growing interest in this race. Some added fun stuff, hot soup and hot chocolate in a heated pavillion after the race,cannon fired start at 9:00 AM, really cool hand made awards.
This is going to be a great run to race and try to win an award or run for fun with a bunch of friends. I will give out a "Team Spirit Award" to the group that shows the most team spirit Ex: nutty costumes, mud covered, cheering ...
The team spirit award will be free caps and a free entry to either of the Chester Woods races next year.

New Trail Run

I had the honor of being one of the first to run the route for a new trail run near Rochester last Monday. KC Reed, who directed the Rochester 1/2 Marathon for many years, has come up with a great race to be run within the Gamehaven Boy Scout Camp. This will be a true cross country race with a couple of water crossings.
You can see a slideshow of part of the course at http://byronteamred.blogspot.com/

I don't have a lot of details yet but the date will be Nov. 13th
