While it isn't officially summer, I think it's safe to say we're into the summer months. Wisconsin race season is upon us, your training is in full swing, and you're already complaing about how hot it is! 😉
Might as well start thinking about crisp mornings, cooler days, reds, oranges, yellows, pies, and the Black River Trail Classic!
We want to build the BRTC family! If you've never been to the forest, consider joining us this fall. There is something special about the smell, the feel, and the look of Black River State Forest at race time. We'd love for you to experience it!
There are a few people that know the feeling of starting a trail adventure at 5:00am in the middle of Black River State Forest. If you're ready to test your limits, hit a goal, or just spend a day in one of Wisconsin's largest state forests the new 85k distance should check all the boxes.
Sometimes it's fun to go a little overboard with your race planning. I've used ultrapacer.com a few times to plan some of my own races. I have no affiliation with them whatsoever, but I did add the BRTC courses if you'd like to use them to plan your race.
There two things that make the BRTC happen. The runners and the volunteers. If you're interested in spending some time in the forest helping people crush their goals let us know and we'll get you signed up.
Do you want to run the Black River Trail Classic, or know someone that wants to, but just can't make it work financially? Let us know, we can help.
If you're racing this summer, best of luck with all your goals. If you're training this summer, keep up the good work. If you're just chilling this summer, you'll be well rested for a race this fall.
Thanks so much for your time and support. I do not take it for granted.
