TUESDAY TRAILS AT REDLAND

Hey Trail Doggies,

Welcome to February! The symbolic mid-point of Winter! Days are getting longer but we still need our headlamps out there.

I was on the upper and lower trails yesterday and while there are still a couple of icy patches, particularly on the lower trail, there is very little mud. That could change but generally the trails are in good condition. Still need to watch your step though.

This evening’s weather should be acceptable. About 41 with a little breeze at run time. You’ll warm up quickly enough. So, tie on your crusty trail shoes and head on over!

OK, Announcements then details for tonight:

Registration for Farm Park Challenge 2025 is OPEN! The race date is Saturday, May 3, 2025. This is one of the premier local Springtime trail events and we are excited to add a traditionally timed 25K this year! Register today! https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=121223

Muddy Shoes Swag still available! Hey, if Santa didn’t bring you that coveted Muddy Shoes cap, buff or reusable cup then Coach Phill can hook you up. He’s got Hats ($15), Buffs ($10) and Cups ($5)
