OMG, it was amazing race. 

Los Pinos 50K, per Race Director "
"This is arguably the toughest 50K in Southern California. Wimps and whiners need not apply. You must possess a strong body, mind and soul, otherwise the trail will eat you alive. Don’t say we didn’t warn you."

A motley group of runners organized on Sept. 25-26 for the Trail Runners Club (TRC) event in Big Sur. Members met for lodging in Monterey and Big Sur. Most of the group, in anticipation of our 20-mile run slept slightly anxiously. Most runners were thoroughly prepared with breakfast meals, gels, snacks, water hydration packs and running apparel.

My long run is usually about 10 to 14 miles. Sometimes, I complain if a trail is too steep, rocky, or even muddy. I will never complain again. Last weekend, Mieko started running Saturday morning at 8:30AM in Corona, until she finished SUNDAY afternoon at 2:30 PM near Huntington Beach. This was the 100-Miles Club course--all on streets and sidewalks. Just imagine that Mieko was tracking her distance over 93.5 miles for 30 hours.

The Group

Club members gathered under the tutelage of TRC member Art on the weekend of April 23rd - 24th, to compete in the Ragnar Relay from Ventura to Dana Point. This is a 200 mile relay with each member of a 12-man team running 3 legs on very little sleep. The TRC entry was a man short and Michael and Art had to carry the extra load. Out of 282 teams entered, TRC came in second (31 hours, 51 minutes) in the Mixed-Masters category, in spite of having 3 runners in their 50’s and 3 runners in their 60’s.

Adam, Kathy and Liz

Several Trail Runners made it up to the Wine Country to participate in the Napa Valley Trail Half-Marathon and 10k on March 27, 2010. In spite of the pre-race indulgences, all enjoyed the beautiful but tough course. Adam ran a blistering 1:41, and sisters Liz and Kathy also competed in the half-marathon. Aviva and her husband Jeff finished the half together, looking extremely strong at the finish. The Tri-Girls- Helen, Heather and Amy, brought a friend from New York, Peggy, who ran her first race. Animal Helen came in second in her division.
