Wow. That was a long break from Blogging! I was getting lazy and posting updates via Twitter for the past month. But, I’m back now and a lot has happened since the last update.
The first MOMAR of the season is just a few weeks away and we are all set to go. We have over 200 racers signed up and ready to rip it out on a newly designed course by Jen Segger. Over 90 of the 200 are first time MOMAR participants which is a great stat to see as we love having a new batch of weekend warriors give adventure racing a try.
MOMAR sponsored athlete, Gary Robbins, has been running and running and running and running some more. He’s become the Forest Gump of the North Shore! Gary was named Ultra Runner of the Year so he gets a BIG CONGRATS. He’s been blogging his race stories and they are a well worth a read especially while you drink a milkshake and eat a cinnamon bun!
Last weekend was the Suburban Rush and Aimee Dunn and I had a blast in our third year racing together. It was actually my fifth time doing this race and that was enough to get me a nice certificate for participation! They sold out their event with 250 racers and the competition keeps getting better every year.
I also spent time in Squamish scouting out Jen’s course. The rappel site is so awesome. Freaky as hell. It makes the rappels from the last two years like bumps in the prairies!
The final few weeks will be busy behind the scenes for the organizing team, but we are very excited for the big day and most of all the big PARTY!
More blogs to come!
