I would liike to thank any of you who signed up for the Horsetooth Half Marathon in Fort Collins
on Saturday. Thanks to you efforts the club should come close to breaking even on the event. If
any of you Colorado runners have a good idea why our numbers dropped off so big this year please
drop me a note.
As I said in my post last week we are attempting to keep a low cost quality event going. IF we are
lucky the road along Horsetooth Resivor will be open in time for us to plan and return to the old
course. We will have to have a received a firm yes to it being in April prior to the end of the year
before we can say for sure that we will be returning to that dam hill. For those of you from outside
the area our dam hill climbs about 400 feet is about a half miles with some grades as steep as 12
percent. Yes people call it that damn hill when they are running up it on race day.
Thanks again to anyone that signed up. IF you ran the race I hope you enjoyed
it.
