Jemez 50k Trail Run

Here's a race report from our local ultrarunning couple!

We ran the Jemez 50k trail run on May 22 along with 149 other folks. It was a beautiful day; nicely breezy and not too hot. Even a few snowbanks to cross here and there.

The course is pretty hard for a 50k with about 8,000 feet of vertical gain/loss.

We both beat our times from last year and both came in third in our age groups! Rick: 7:21:28 31st overall; Jan: 8:26:46 64th overall. Rick had an especially good day, beating his time from last year by almost an hour!
