About NATRA Blog

This page is meant for folks to post their thoughts on the Saturday group run. I (Neil) will post a blurb about who showed up and where it was held. From there, I hope that other runners will share their thoughts since we often have different experiences on the same run. Enjoy!

3rd Annual Beaver Creek Polar Bear Plunge



14 runners set out for the Beaver Creek pools on a brilliantly sunny December day. Surprisingly, snow from last weekend's cold storm clung to the south side of the canyon. There were no yeti or rampaging panda sightings in Beaver Creek, however, runners did catch a glimpse of a polar bear wading in the creek. We also noted that runners wore almost every variety of NATRA headgear and Neil and Diana wore the latest NATRA beanie and headband. Jen, Diana, and Elizabeth took a detour to Weir Crossing. See Jen's slideshow below.
