Yesirree, It’s Two-For-Tuesday!
For one – you get an awesome trail run on some awesome trails with some awesome trail friends!
And for two – we get to go to Outta the Way Café for a post-run nosh and mingle!
Can’t beat that!
The weather Gods have received my monthly Muddy Shoes payment so it will be nice – upper 80’s with relative low humidity – at run time. Not too bad for July around here!
Before I get to the run details I get to hit you with the announcements:
- SIGN UP! The 6th Annual Muddy Shoes Summer Fatass is coming this Saturday July 15th. This awesome low-key trail event, located in Seneca Creek State Park, is followed by a fun post-run potluck feast and mingle (Muddy Shoes supplies meat and plant proteins and some other stuff). We’ll have an alcohol permit so there will be adult beverages to enjoy in moderation. And, sorry, Dude, the permit does not cover weed. For more info https://www.facebook.com/events/542645244617986
- Don’t miss out on Muddy Shoes merch! Not only do we have Muddy Shoes baseball hats ($15) and buffs ($10), we have official Muddy Shoes re-usable cups ($5)! Great to carry with you to lower your carbon footprint on the planet! Plus, they look awesome! Please see Coach Phil or Coach Mike (Chau).
