Mark your calendar for the WVMTR 8th Annual Camp and Run Weekend. This club run was our first organized group run and the weekend continues to be a great get together. Traditionally, this event was held at Seneca Rocks with a run of the North Fork Mountain Trail.  Last year Bradley Mongold and Adam Casseday’s epic run of the Allegheny Trail took them through Pocahontas County and Watoga State Park.   Someone suggested that the club host the Annual Club Camp and Run weekend at Watoga, and the idea stuck. So this year we’re mixing things up!

Make your reservation early. We are limited to 70.

This year come to Watoga State Park to meet old and new friends, run on portions of WV’s Allegheny Trail, tube the Greenbrier River, fish for trout, bike on the rail trail, and enjoy a great potluck post run feast. There are lots to do for everyone, runners and non-runners. Hope to see all you new members out there! Watoga State Park‘s 10,100 acres are located in the mountains of Pocahontas County just 14 miles south of Marlinton, West Virginia.

The second running of WVMTR’s other ultra by Adam Casseday RD is now open for registration.

A gradual climb up Cheat Mt, run with the moon along the spine of this 4000′ ridge, descend to Shavers Fork, climb through the dark spruce back up Cheat, drop to Shavers Fork for a second time,  now north along the river, climb gradually once again up Cheat Mt and run the high ridge north as dawn approaches.  A 50 mile loop with 6300′ gain and loss.

Casseday and Mongold to run Allegheny Trail

Published by under Fastpacking,Member News,Multi-day,Running

mongold-casseday-2007-hs-trainer.jpgAdam Casseday and Bradley Mongold will run the 292 mile, or 300 mile depending on your source of information, Allegheny Trail later this summer. They have been planning the adventure for over a year. The north-south ALT extends along the eastern mountains of from the WV/PA line near Bruceton Mills to Peter’s Mt on the WV/VA border. The guys exact daily schedule is still fluid but they will start at the northern terminus on 8/28 and intend to finish in five days on 9/1. A personal blog is in the works. Watch for more details here.
