Great race, good food, and nice high-performance shirt! And all for a great cause – the Mountain Lake Conservancy! Thanks for putting on an awesome set of races today! – Erik O.
Thanks for an awesome race! The 2012 MTT was extremely well organized, the trail was marked great and the pre/post race support was fantastic. The course was challenging and fun and the weather was terrific. We are glad we chose to run this and will certainly be back!
Enjoyed the race! Great job. I would like to see awards in 5 or 10 year increments. I like the awards you have, and they don’t seem to be costly, so why not have more awards?
Ed, glad you enjoyed the race! The awards were homemade this year so time was a factor, we’ll try to have more and something just as unique next year!
Had a great time at the race! I someone taking pictures out on the course. Do you know when/where they will be posted? Thank you!
