Medoc Meltdown 50k

Don't forget about the Medoc Meltdown 50k this Saturday. Over 30 runners are expected to be at the park for the run. Most are doing one or two park loops, and a few others are going for the full 50k! As a reminder, this is a non-supported run, so bring your own fluids. You will however be motivated by lots of other friendly runners.

This is a great chance to get a training run on the trails before the Medoc Trail Races on October 4th. It is a stress free event. Take whichever pace you desire, and run as much or as little as you want.
If you plan to participate, contact Frank or Cameron through their site. This way they know who is coming. To let the RMEC know, you can post here as well. There is probably a great chance to set up some carpooling.
EVERYONE is welcome to join. Slow or fast. . . experienced or not. . . come out and run!

Great fun! Very different from running on the road. My ankles are tired. The best part - the popsicle at the finish. Thanks Frank and Cameron (is that right?)!

I loved this! I'm ready to go back. I'm thinking Labor Day....????

It was very challenging, but so much fun. Much nicer than running on the road all the time.

Thanks to all for an absolutely wonderful experience. I had never done a trail run before but fell in love with it immediately. A special thanks to Frank, Cameron, Scott and several others whose names I can't remember (you know who you are) for all the encouragement and motivation to keep me going. I hope you do this again as I will definitely be recommending it to everyone!!!!
