Weekend Starting Line

Team Inov-8 runners will be logging big trail miles this weekend in a series of 50k events. Starting on the Left Coast, team runners Joe Grant, Yassine Diboun and Brian Morrison will be looking for nice views and solid footing at the Chuckanut 50k, near Bellingham, Wa. The profile shows a really nice downhill near the end. Ouch. Good luck out there guys.

Lainie Callahan will be heading out to the California hills for the Rucky Chucky 50k. This out and back trail tackles some of the rocky, Western States 100 course from Foresthill, CA to Ruck a Chuck and back. Beautiful and rugged country, best of luck Lainie.

Finally, Anne and Mark Lundblad are making the trip to Pelham, AL for the Oak Mountain 50k. These two are both coming off of recent trail wins and hope to continue that success on Saturday.

If you aren't racing this weekend, I hope that everyone is able to get outdoors and help chase away the winter. Sorry all you snowshoers but I'm over it! We've had a good thaw here in the southland and I'm really looking forward to some snow free trails.
