VHTRC - The Club

Many VHTRC members finished the Vermont 100 mile on July 16-17. Results are now available, but they are not easy to use. Congratulations to all the finishers!   Vermont Web site

Sean Andrish was second overall and first master at the Finger Lakes 50km in New York on July 2. Sean's time was 24 minutes faster that the former course record. There were a few of other VHTRC finishers and many familiar faces in the results.  Results | Finger Lakes Web page

Thanks to all who reponded to the 2011 survey of MMT runners.  We have compiled the results and summarized the comments. The report of the survey is now available.

Andiamo: Co-Director Needed -- a message from Carolyn Gernand:  I need a co-RD - take the "Read more" link for additional information.

Matt Woods ran a 5:59 to lead the field at the North Face 50 mile on June 4.  Regan Petrie was 11th overall and the first female in 7:33. There were several other VHTRC members in the field. Matt, of course, won Bull Run Run this year, setting the event record. North Face results

Linda Gaudette, putting in a final training run before taking on the Old Dominion 100 next month, was the women's winner at the 24 Hour ATR in Prince William Forest Park on May 7-8.  Michael Campbell was the top VHTRC men's finisher, coming in 3rd while covering 100 miles on the 6.25 mile single-track trail loop.  Results

Brian Schmidt and Ragan Petrie were the top VHTRC finishers at Promise Land 50K near Bedford, Virginia on Saturday. Many other VHTRC members finished what is considered one of the most beautiful (and toughest) 50K runs around. Results on David Horton's site|  Keith Knipling's photos on Flickr 

Unlike the "Adventure Quest" version of Elizabeth Furnace 50k that was held in 2010 (with stream crossings that threatened to drown the competitors) the 2011 EFA 50k had passable streams and sunny, warm weather.  It also had plenty of those Massanutten rocks, as evidenced by the spirited "best blood" competion.  67 runners took part in this year's race.  Results are still being tabulated, but the men's winner was David Frazier in a new course record time, and the women's winner was Michele Harmon.
