This race was in the middle of January so no shocker that it was covered in ice. People were slipping and sliding everywhere but that’s what you risk when signing up for a trail winter race. Anyway, beyond that this was a very pretty course through the woods. Not a huge crowd – only 53 people in my 10k but still enough around me to keep it competitive, but this was a pretty laid-back race. I did skip about 4 miles in on a downhill but was able to recover quickly. I got a short sleeve shirt swag. There were post races snacks readily available. The bathroom situation was not super ideal as there is only 1 porta potty about 1/4-1/2mile from the start but the small crowd made it not a huge line problem. Little to no spectators at the start and absolutely none on the course so a very quiet race that you get to enjoy nature. Only 1 major hill around mile 3-4.
Covered in ice, Nice trail scenery
