Much of the beer that was given to the race last year was returned unused.

The series is a big one and the run itself needs a dedicated RD, IMO.<br /><br />To have to focus on the MTB 100 and then the Run100 on two consecutive weekends is a big ask of one person, especially with all the other LT-related events in Leadville & across the country going on throughout the summer.<br /><br /> Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07768257304687597320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241238297532213032.post-64361681085356181732013-08-23T10:26:10.903-07:002013-08-23T10:26:10.903-07:00Great write up Nick, and another brilliant run!
