Dear fellow runners,

 

I would like to share with you two running relay events I organize that have categories for Hash House Harriers.  Registration is now open for both. 

 

Green Mountain Relay
Jeffersonville to Bennington, Vermont
36 Legs - 202 Miles

The Green Mountain Relay is a 202-mile team running relay event in Vermont designed for runners of all abilities. Scheduled around the full moon in June, the Green Mountain Relay will be Saturday, June 10th - Sunday, June 11th, 2006.  The relay begins 45 minutes from Burlington in the small town of Jeffersonville and finishes in Bennington. Covered bridges, sections of historic and scenic RT 100, and the small town hospitality of Vermont are all incorporated in to this relay event.  There are two types of teams in the relay: 12-person and Ultra teams, and nine categories to choose from.

 

Fort Collins to Steamboat Springs, Colorado

36 Legs - 195 Miles

 

The Wild West Relay is a 195-mile team running relay event in Colorado designed for runners of all abilities. Scheduled around the full moon in August, the Wild West Relay will be Friday, August 11th - Saturday, August 12th, 2006.  The relay begins by the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Fort Collins, Colorado, and finishes in the beautiful ski and summer resort town of Steamboat Springs. Much of this very scenic and remote course runs through National Forests or along dirt roads. The route winds through Roosevelt, Medicine Bow, and Routt National Forests, and through small, mountain and ranching communities.  There are two types of teams in the relay: 12-person and Ultra teams, and ten categories to choose from.

 

Additional information:

 

Both relays give back to local, grass-root non-profit organizations.  For the 2005 Wild West Relay, $10,000 was raised and distributed.  For information on this program, please go to http://www.timberlineevents.com/communities.html.  We are also members of 1% For the Planet - one percent of our gross revenue is donated to environmental organizations.

 

Entry information is available on each website.  Thank you very much.

Group Moderator - I only make one post a year to your group to announce my relay events.  Many of you have given me approval to do this.  But if you prefer not to receive these, please let me know - along with the name of your group - and I will not send them again.  Thanks!
