2002 RUNNERS COMMENTS |
The Meeteetse Recreation District planned a mountain race last year in the Timber Creek area. This years race is set for Labor Day Weekend, Saturday, September 4, 2004. There has been considerable excitement about this event and the location the last two years. It has been a very successful event. There is races for all abilities, so be part of something special.
The 5k, 10k race will run
up the Timber Creek jeep trail which will be set up so the whole family
will be able to participate.
The 15k mountain run will
continue up and around the mountain through some of the most dramatic mountain
scenery in all the Rocky Mountains. It concludes with a descent down a
1000' mountain face. According to local mountain runner Fred Thomas and
participants from past races, it is one of the most RADICAL FINISHES around
with the makings of a classic!
"My fourth organized trail run of 2002. I participated in the Bighorn 50K, the Elkhorn 50K and the RimRunners' 26 Mile fun run from East Rosebud Lake to Cooke City, MT and now the WILDEST of all, The Meeteetse 15K Trail."
There is good spectator viewing areas of the mountain face and some for the rest of the race as well. Bring binoculars or spotting scope and a lawn chair.
