SATURDAY TRAIL RUN WITH MUDDY SHOES
Hey There, Trail Connoisseurs,
Can ya believe we’re halfway through August already?! Summer is just flying by. And you guys are flying down the trails! Well, not everyone is flying down the trails but still moving at some pace to get from Point A to Point B. And so that’s where we are running today…from Point A to Point B…and back! See below for more details.
In the meantime, Mother Nature is still not cooperating too much. It will be a sticky one. Temps won’t be bad at runtime but you will sweat! The good news is that the humidity will drop significantly while we run. Take what we can get!
OK, first, announcements:
Muddy Shoes swag is still available! 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 up on each weekend 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 preview of a different section of the actual 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.
Lastly, currently in discussions with Coach Rick from the DC Striders Wolfpack Trail Group to do a Saturday mash-up trail run with Muddy Shoes! Looking at the weekend of 13 September but details are still being worked out. Stay tuned!
