Vickery Creek Trail Run

This is a trail running event on hilly terrain.  We will walk a little bit around the dangerous bluffs portion (be very careful on this section.  Hold your arms out just in case you slip, and yes, I have slipped here before) or if we tucker out on some of the uphills, but mostly this is a trail running event.  The pace is defined as moderate on this one, but this is a running pace.  We're covering ~5 miles in 1 hour and 15 minutes.  There are places where we might open it up some and go wide open.  We do take an official break at the falls, but generally it's only about a 1 minute break.  Don't want to get all cooled down or anything you know.  This trail run kind of gets harder the farther we go, so be aware of that and pace yourself for it.

We will meet at the trail head parking area off of Oxbo Road. This event has been led in the past from the trail head off Dobbs Drive, but the bridge is closed there.

We will start at event start time on the nose or earlier if everyone gets there early.

We well meet at the trail head parking area off Oxbo Road.
