We missed some top runners like Blake Wood who were busy coaching the high schppl tracksters at the state meet. Nrxt year we will hold the race a week later to accomodate more local runners. A total of 22 finished the 50 miler and 25 did the 50 km.The half-marathon had 49 finishers on a beautiful day.
This was the first organized 50 mile and 50 km trail runs in New Mexico and we hope to return next year. The RD tried his best but bowed out to Caballo Mountain and was a dnf. He will try the 50 km next year that might prove more successful than the longer race.
