Sunday, March 30, Soaring Eagle Park

A few inches of snow covered the trails and forest plants the night before this run. This is unusual enough in Winter, but it was downright exotic in Spring. It didn't stop 105 runners--a Northwest Trail Runs record--from challenging themselves on the slippery trails and coming back muddy and smiling. Seattle Running Company's Brian Morrison had a good day and transcended the slow trail conditions to come within half a minute of the 10-mile course record.

Thanks to the excellent staff that made this run happen: Nina, Jon, Jim, David, Murray, Jeannie, Peteris and Jennifer. Thanks also to Seattle Running Company for their continued support. SRC provided the socks, shirts and hats that some runners won by random drawing. The next run will be Saturday, April 26, at Squak Mountain State Park, South of Issaquah.
