We'll get things started off this Friday night where Jeremy Ramsey will be racing the Cheat Mountain Moonshine Madness 50 miler. The race is a 50 mile loop near Beverly, WV starting at 9pm and has 6300' of climb. We also have a weekend with another USA National Trail Championship. This time in the 10k trail distance at the Continental Divide Trail Race near Laurel Springs, NC. This course is very tough and will challenge two of our best mountain runners on the team, Gina Lucrezi and Amber Moran. Both are predicted to be up front in the mix this Saturday. Dwight Shuler will be back at it again, this time at the Tsali Challenge here in WNC. The challenge is a 12 mile mountain bike, 3 mile paddle and a 5 mile trail run. Michele Hartwig will do battle at the Lean Horse 100 in Hot Springs, SD. Amy Lane will be at the Green Lakes Endurance Runs, racing the 50k distance this Sunday in Fayetteville, NY. On Sunday, Ben Nephew will be representing not only Team Inov-8 but the US at the World Trophy 50k Championships in Galway, Ireland. Also on Sunday Jim Johnson will be racing 4.3 miles at the Race To the Top of Vermont up Mt.Mansfield. Jim is the returning champion from last year.

Jeremy, You will have an awesome night. You will love this night time course. See you tomorrow night. Rick
Joe G here, reporting in from Chamonix, France. Running UTMB tonight, starting at 6:30pm local time. It's raining here, Pacific Northwest style, so a fresh pair of 212's are the best choice for race. You can follow runners at http://www.ultratrailmb.com/page/88/Supporters.html
I'm bib number 20.
Sorry I left you off the list Joe. Good luck and do the US and Team Inov-8 proud! Go bib #20!
