My Muddy Shoes

OK, Trail Junkies,

Time to test your mettle. Looks like we won’t have a chance to dry out from Saturday. Might be a tad moist out there in the Forests of Derwood but that’s what makes trail running so exhilarating…running in the dark, in the rain! Personally, I love it. After the hot, dry, dusty Summer we had, a cool drizzly night almost sounds appealing. This is where the tough get going!

OK, Announcements then details…

Announcements:

– Upcoming on Saturdays in October – Stone Mill Course Preview runs. More details to come but these will be open to all.

– The Muddy Shoes Phantastic Phall Phat Ass is coming up on Saturday November 2nd. Take your pick – Half Marathon or 10k. All are welcome. It’s a potluck so look for a sign-up sheet soon. Great taper run for Stone Millers!

– Still have 10 year Muddy Shoes commemorative t-shirts (long and short sleeve) ready to order. Sizes run a little big. Buy ‘em here: https://mymuddyshoes.printify.me/products
