SATURDAY TRAILS WITH MUDDY SHOES
Hey Trail Dogs,
We are sliding into Fall and it looks like we have some great weather on tap for this Saturday’s run. It’ll be a pleasantly cool and partly sunny start. This run from Riley’s Lock on up the Seneca Bluffs Trail is truly a sweet jaunt. One of the nicer and less frequented trails we have here in MoCo. Don’t forget to look for ripe Paw-Paws along this stretch. They are in season. Might see some nice shrooms too!
So, we are winding down our Summer trail series. Only a couple more to go! Still looking for someone to lead a run on the 20th as I’ll be beaching it and Coach Audrey will be leading on the 28th. Then we head into the SM50 previews, Phall Phat Ass and on to Winter Trails! Lots to look forward to!
OK, announcements then run details:
Muddy Shoes swag is still available at pre-tariff prices! We got Hats ($15), Buffs ($10) and Re-usable Cups ($5). See Coach Phil.
We have the world-famous Muddy Shoes SM50 Course Preview Runs coming in October as well as the Phantastic Phall Phat Ass Haph Marathon and 10k the weekend before Stone Mill (great taper run!). Come out and get a look at a different section of the course each Saturday in October. Do all four runs, you’ll see the whole course. Come join us even if you aren’t doing Stone Mill. Everyone is welcome! Donations appreciated. Lots of good trail fun.
