Weiser River Trail 50K, Rapid River exploration

Crewing for Brandi and Matt at the 3rd Annual 
Weiser River 50K.  

B got sick for the second year in a row finishing 6th and bettering her time by 40 some minutes.  Mountain runners take a beating on this fast course.

Matt in his first ultra finished 3rd overall.  A solid effort and he raced hard all the way with very  consistent splits.  He will be a force in the local mountain ultras this year.

27+ miles and over 9K' gain.  "How much you wanna bet I can throw a football over that mountain."

  1. That trail run looks incredible. I shall try to get up into the mountains a bit before our boy is due. "Liger, it's pretty much my favorite animal."
