Please check our upcoming races for 2006 in Capitol Forest:

The 5th annual Mega Fat Ass will be on January 21, 2006 with the same theme and start as last year: no frills, no awards, no t's but a small $3 fee to help pay for permit fees. The course will follow the same 17 mile loop, with 34 miles as the double loop. Donations will be appreciated that will go towards the McQueeney Memorial Fund. The start will be at 8:00 a.m. at Falls Creek campground. Check the website for more details for driving directions and waiver if you are under 18. No pre-registration necessary, just come as you are with your donation and a happy smile for another fun time in the mud in Capitol Forest! http://www.capitolpeakultras.com/cpmfaindex.htm
The 2nd annual Capitol Peak 50 mile has been rescheduled for April 15, 2006. This race will have a RELAY option that includes a 2-person (running one 25 mile legs each) and 4-person (running two 8-12 mile legs each) both covering the entire 50 mile course. The start/finish has been changed to the Falls Creek campground and the starting time will be 6:00 a.m. for regular starters and 5:00 a.m. for early starters. Relay start will be at 7:00 a.m. Relay teams may start at the 6:00 a.m. The 50 mile course will follow the same route as last years route but starting approximatly 22 miles into the run, making the 2000 Captitol Peak climb ealier in the race, but the (most likely) muddy 1800 ft climb up from Hells Creek during the latter part of the race. See the website for more details. I'll have the mail in and online entry form all completed in the next couple of weeks.

Please let me know if you are interested in volunteering for the 50 mile and Relay!
Looking forward in seeing you all out on the trails soon!
Maybe perhaps some of you at the Autumn Leaves 50/50 which I'll be attempting my first 50 miler since my knee injury.
See you on the trails!
