The Vancouver 100km, the Knee Knacker and Stormy are the big trail races this summer. PRR will have a presence in all of them, with close to 15 members participating in Stormy. Volunteers wanted!
June 7 & 8 - the Vancouver 100 - Fresh off the success of her 50 mile trail races, Jess will be attempting her first 100km on the challenging “double Knee Knacker” course. Anyone interested in cheering or crewing? At least one club member (Sukhi) has already been recruited to run the dreaded Black Mountain section with Jess.
Bill will also be running this one - it’s just a short 100 km warm up for him. Several club members will be helping out with pacing/crewing. Everyone is welcome to cheer at various points on the course.
July 12 - Knee Knacker - Bill D, Susan, Terry, Jim, Jon F, Sukhi, Arthur, Bill L, & Henry will be participating in the 50km trail race. Dave & Jackie M are heading up the volunteer efforts at Cypress and will be assisted as always by a dedicated group of PRR volunteers. Mike, Marco (maybe) and Nicki will be staffing another smaller PRR aid station at Skyline. Looking for a few good
(wo)men to assist. Or maybe a few good looking men to assist. Something like that.
If you’re not running - come out and cheer the runners on. They really appreciate it.
August 8 & 9 - Stormy - the big one. Friday August 8 noon start for our two crazy 100 milers. Anyone interested in running through the night or providing crew support - talk to Bill or Jess. I’m sure they’ll find a way that you can help.
August 9 - 6:00 am start for the 50 mile solo (Sukhi and Ellie) and the relay. So far we have two teams entered. Teams can be anywhere from 2-7 runners. Team 1 PRR J&TS (John, Terry & Susan) threw out the challenge. Team 2 (Dean, Diana, Laura, Grant, Karen & Monique) are definitely capable of rising to that challenge. Should make for an interesting finish.
Anyone who isn’t racing or crewing - volunteers are needed. See the Stormy site http://homepage.mac.com/designr2/stormy/
Or just bring a lawn chair and come out and cheer for your club mates.
