The KrrBrrr - Apr 03
Spend an hour or a day–or anything in between–trail running with your closest running friends and nemeses; very low key.
Distance options: Approx. 5--mile loops (with optional 2.5 mile loop); run as many as you please in the 8hr time period, until you can’t feel your limbs, or until you can’t give any more blood.
Course has variety of flat, steep, rolling, wide, double-wide, and single-track trails. Slush, slop, mud, ice, poop (horse variety), thorns, blood, views, guaranteed.
Newcomers: If you're looking for a polished, hand held, catered race...you've come to the wrong place. This is just an excuse to run through the mud and shake the cobwebs off your winter brain.
Hahahaha, tell us you're new here. It'll be marked, promise.
Parking is available at the Jim Creek Rec Area (address below.) A 2027 MatSu Borough Permit is required.
Aid Station:
One main aid station will be available at the start tent for runners to access between loops. Water, electrolytes, broth, chips, and other snacks. Feel free to bring your own goodies to share!
THE RULES:
- You must wear your bib so that it is visible to the race staff.
- You must check in at the tent upon completion of each loop and wave/signal when you're heading back out on your next loop.
- NO DOGS ON COURSE. It’s an insurance/permit thing, not because we hate dogs.
- MUST YIELD to horses. This is a multi purpose trail. Be respectful of all other trail users including 4-wheelers and wildlife.
- You MUST check out with the RD or race staff when you are done running for the day.
RECOMMENDED GEAR:
- Kahtoolas, maybe. Unlikely you’ll be wanting ‘less’ traction.
- Trekking poles, good idea. Not so much for the hills, but to tripod yourself around water hazards.
- Extra shoes & socks, for sure. Neos if you have them..flotation and waders in one.
- Gardening gloves & safety glassed, absolute must. Did we mention bushwacking yet?
- Those old shinguards in the back of your closet? Can’t hurt.
