2012

Whats up for 2012.
The 34 and 50 mile course will remain the same. The 100 mile will see a small change. we will be moving the mesa lakes aid station to an easier place to find. and the mesa lakes section will be a loop again instead of an out and back.  the web site will be updated with the changes soon.

Happy New Year

Maybe a snowshoe race

Whats out there

I've been asked about htis photo several times. During the race I got a report about the markers being down between  Anderson lake and Carson lake . While adding new markers at two in the morning I ran into a bear he's out there in the dark.

Well me and Rick went to Moab for the weekend.  Rick was to run the 50

and I was to run an aid station at mile 92. Well Rick bailed on the 50 and

Instead worked the aid station with me thanks Rick.

Instead of mile 92 we were mile 50 and 68 or so. 

Congratulations to all those who  fought through the weather and confusion to finish

The wet start

Our humble aid station

We were busy so I only got a few photos

What you support by running the GM100

 These photographs were taken Sept. 19 to 21, 2011 of fifth graders from Pomona Elementary in Montrose as they attended Camp Redcloud near Lake City.For some kids, it was their first experience camping and all of the students learned how teamwork, overcoming obstacles, and an appreiciation of the outdoors will enrich their lives. A portion of your registration fee went to scholarships for kids who needed help paying for this wonderful outdoor experience.  Thanks for your support!!

What a month

Well I'm back. Three days after the race I had my shoulder rebuilt it was more messed up then the MRI showed. I will no longer complain how hard the Kannah creek drop and climb back to the top of the mesa hurts. It's nothing.
Once again we got lucky and had perfect weather again this. On Tuesday after the race it was about 50 degrees on top and pouring rain.
Next years race will be on July 28-29 2012 . Sign up will be on Ultrasignup.

Updates to maps and directions will be on the website next month.
