Ok. . . it’s a few weeks late but here it is. Save the weekend July 30 – August 1, come run the rock with friends and family at the annual WVMTR Camp and Run Weekend. Check out the details and reserve your spot. Go to Coopers Rock. 

Want to break the cabin fever and get in a good long run?  Well if so, come join me and Dan this Saturday (2/20) for a 20-25 mile run on some snow-covered roads around Beverly.  We’ll start at my house around 9 am and if you’re interested in this fun run, just drop me an e-mail (dr_casseday@yahoo.com).

This 15k trail run is a challenging mix of single track mountainous trail and unimproved dirt road. The course includes two long climbs and several sections of rolling ridge lines. There are rocks, roots and wet stuff. Your “dogs” will get dirty! Aid stations stocked with water (for humans and canines) and sport drink (humans only) will be located at mile 2.2, 4.7, 6.5 and the finish. A selection of fruit and baked goods will replenish you at the finish. Lots of prizes for people and their dogs!
