Another action packed weekend for Team Inov-8. In the beautiful Mt. Hood area in Oregon, Yassine Diboun will be racing in the inaugural Hundred in the 'Hood. What looks to be a nice course with 100% single-track and 10k of climb as shown by this 3D course picture.
Emma Garrard will be at the Xterra US Championships in the Ogden/Snowbasin resort areas of Utah. The championship course is a 1.5k swim / 30k mountain bike / 10k trail run for qualifying athletes. Staying out West you'll find Dewey Peacock racing at the Homestake Pass 5 mile near Butte, MT.
Back on the East coast we have 3 athletes at the Great Eastern Endurance Run.
Anne Lundblad will be taking on the 50k course while Sean Andrish and myself will be racing the 100k distance. The race (there is also a half-marathon option) takes place in the Sherando Lake Recreation area in the George Washington National Forest with plenty of technical single-track and lots of climbing.

Thanks for the posts. I love to read the race reports and the other stuff posted on you blog.
The dark background and the contrast with the color of the text makes my eyes hurt and I can read on the blogs for too long. Studies have shown that lighter backgrounds increase readability:

And dark backgrounds do not necessarily consume less energy:

Ha! That's a great comment.
Good luck to everyone this weekend. I'll be at the Sierra Nevada Double Marathon in Auburn, CA, seeing if X-Talon 212's can perform at 50+ miles. Should be fun!
