Annihilator Mondays!
Every Monday in June runners tackle the technical 3-mile course at J.P.Nicely Park in West Falls for a brand new series. Entrants can race on a weekly basis or compete for series awards by completing all four. Series awards go to standard 5-year age groups, OA M/F & Masters for the long course. Short course awards to the overall top 10 in the series. Best three out of four times count towards series awards. There will not be individual weekly race awards.
The course features a smooth start followed by a few miles of technical single track and off-road trails. Rooty climbs, decents and heart thumping action is guaranteed. Taken at your own pace this is a beautiful, picturesque course that parallels Caz. creek. Remote and beautiful, challenging and fun. Course length about 1-1/2 miles. Plus the Annihilator set of climbs....Save that for later.... Rain or shine. All levels of runners are encouraged to partake.
Don't forget about the Annihilator set of climbs.
