WSS 15K so much fun, so much mud!!!


Al managed to damage his a**




Al also managed to damage his knee



He is one fast mofo!

The Wades pose at the finish

So, it was a successful WSS 15K with wonderful temps, awesome times and good friends! Seven Misfits made the trek to RockCut for the third installment in the trail series. Caitlin and Dan made their Misfit debut and Caitlin walked away with a overall 3rd female finish and a first in her age group cashing in a $25 prize purse! Stan, Dan, Katie, Karen all finished strong. Katie and Karen are both in the race for that "Damn Orange Shirt" but must endure the final 20K on 3/17! 

Additionally, the Misfits are going legit! We will soon be affiliated with RRCA! Saturday night was the group's first offical meeting, we voted on officers, collected dues and drank beer! Stay tuned for more on that!

Happy traning!
