2nd Annual 4 on the 4th

Today marked the second annual Free Flagstaff Four on the Fourth. Organized by Arizona Daily Sun Editor Randy Wilson, the race handicaps fast age groups. With a head start given to slower runners, everyone has a chance at victory. Sara Wagner returned to the Flagstaff racing scene in grand fashion crossing the finish line with a 2 minute lead. This year, the top 3 runners were all women, and Matt Boness was the only repeat top 10 finisher! Download photos . Happy July 4th to all!

22 runners headed up on top of Observatory Mesa on a beautiful fall like morning. Several had to put on an extra shirt just to keep warm! Most actually ran the 10.7 mile long around the A-1 Mountain Meadow. Afterwards we returned to the Seasoned Kitchen to wind down with Tony's lates. Download today's photos.

Humphrey's Trail Conditions

A lot of questions this week about the Humphrey's Trail. Read the article that appeared in the Daily Sun after Memorial Day Weekend. Looking for elevation? Run Weatherford to Doyle Saddle for at least another week.

Sacred Mountain Prayer Run

A record turnout at the Sacred Mountain Prayer Run!

Soulstice Sprint Course

Memorial Day brought out a near record group of 30 runners. We were also joined by the Flagstaff Luna Moms! For the first time since I can remember, the creek along the Sunset Trail was flowing with water. There were also some foot deep snow drifts that will likely last well into June! Dropping into "not so" Dry Lake Hills we encountered a dry lake filled with water and ducks! Even the trip down Little Gnarly had the sound of trickling water! We then packed the Seasoned Kitchen with a standing room only crowd and enjoyed Tony's coffees.

Run for the Mountain Race - Soldiers Trail

A windy wild race at Fort Tuthill with record crowds!

Waterline Road

11 runners headed up the waterline road. We are still awaiting a full report from anyone who ran!
