Rock 2 Rock Trail Run – May 27, 2011 – Camp Rockmont – Black Mountain, NC
This was voted one of the top trail races in the south in 2010 by Blue Ridge Outdoor Magazine. It’s a stunningly beautiful setting and course and it’s the hardest race I’ve ever run. The distance is 10k-ish but the guidelines for this race suggest adding 60% to your typical 10k time. When I ran this in 2009 it kicked my butt and my time was about 70% more than my typical 10k time. You can’t possibly run this entire course – it’s gnarly, super technical and – when it’s all over you can say “that was fun!”

Dennis- The Stampede will be 8/13 @ 7 pm. 5k and 10 mile. Just got ok from City. Working on the malware issue and will likely run everything through http://www.randyashley.com. Also, thanks for what you do at this website.

Dennis,
Will the Sunset Stampede be held this year?
It appears so. I don’t have a link because the website has malware on it. The same thing happened last year and I notified the race director and did not link to it until the site was fixed. I think the race is atrophying. Last year’s turnout was slim and it’s not promoted.
