This Thursday's run is at Lookout Mtn on the Chimney Gulch and Beaver
Brook (T=3, P=3, N=2; s) trails. The main group will start at 6:15pm;
the early group meets at 5:30pm. After the run, everyone is invited to
come to dinner with us. We pick a nearby location at the end of the run.

We will try a different route this time. The start will be the same.
At the trail junction ~1/4 mi after crossing Windy Saddle, we will
stay right on the Beaver Brook trail. Go out for a total of 40
minutes, then turn around and return the same way. I've never been on
this section of the Beaver Brook trail before. In addition to the
listing on my web site, you can also look at the map at
http://www.co.jefferson.co.us/ext/dpt/comm_res/openspac/windymp.htm

If you are new to the group or unfamiliar with the run locations and
rating, please go to dtr.runuphillracing.com for driving directions,
running routes, trail ratings, or other information about the group.
Please read and bring a printout of the maps and route descriptions.

Tue morning runs continue at South Table Mtn (T=3, P=2, N=4) on
Tuesday mornings, 5:15am. Please see the message posted on Mondays, or
contact Ray: r2grundmeyer@....

Wed mornings, run stairs at Red Rocks. This is a "show-and-go"
workout, meaning that just start whenever you show up. People have
been starting anywhere from 5:30-6:30am.

Wed mornings, every other week, join Derek Griffith for a long run
near Ken Caryl. He starts at his house, 28 Tecoma Circle, at 6:30am,
and runs for up to 2 hours, 12-15 miles. Contact Derek for more
information, derek@...

Team Freakin Idiots needs additional runners for their Wild West Relay
team. See race details below. If interested, or for questions, contact
Jess LaVigne, jsobo5@....

Relay races are a lot of fun. You spend 24 hours or so, running and
driving through the mountains, with other tired runners. You can be
seriously competitive; you can be casual; you can have both on the
same team. There are a couple of good events in Colorado:

8/19-20; Wild West Relay; Ft. Collins to Steamboat Springs; 195 miles;
directed by a sometime DTR member Paul Vanderheiden. Teams of 12 with
each person running three separate 5-6 mile legs. Ultra teams of 6
with each person running a single 30-35 mi leg. This is held on the
full moon. www.wildwestrelay.com, wwr@...

9/16-17; Colorado Outward Bound Relay; Idaho Springs to Glenwood
Springs; 170 miles. 10 and 5 person teams. www.coloradorelay.com

Interested in forming a team with other DenverTrailRunners for an
upcoming relay? Do you already have a team that is looking for
additional runners? If interested in forming a team, please send me a
note. We'll need someone to volunteer to "lead" the teams. That means
being the contact person and organizing the other runners and drivers.
You can use the DTR message to help recruit team members. I am not
able to do the relays this year, although I have done the Colorado
Relay before.
