April showers bring May flowers, and what do May flowers bring?? The Charlie Horse Trail Half Marathon and Dirty Pony 5k!
That’s right, May means your favorite Pagoda Pacer trail half-marathon is right around the corner on May 25th!
What makes Charlie Horse such a great race? It features scenic sections of single-track along the Horse-Shoe Trail–a fun challenge if you want to push your legs this spring, but less intimidating than those crazy long ultras!
Not sure if you’re up for 13(ish) miles of trail running? No worries–we’ve got you covered with the Dirty Pony 5k! I promise you, the Dirty Pony 5k is unlike any race you’ve run before, and while you might not run away with a PR, you’re almost guaranteed to walk away with a great story. (And maybe some mud.)
If trails just aren’t your thing, but you still want to have fun with your favorite Pagoda Pacers, we’d love to see you out there volunteering. (Or do BOTH! Just pick an early/late volunteer spot that won’t interfere with your race.) As many of you know, it takes a lot of manpower to put on a race, and we can’t do it without the support of awesome people like you.
Head to Ultrasignup to register for the race and/or sign up to volunteer. Hope to see you there!
Happy trails from your Race Directors,
Shaun, Libby, and Kelly
P.S. This is the first race of the popular Pagoda Pacer Triple Trail Challenge. (And new this year: Triple Trail Starter Pack!) Don’t miss out….
